My favorite pickup

Along with an EMG 89, which is a split coil 85, this guitar came standard in the bridge of my Schecter. It is scorching. This pickup delivers a crazy tone on distortion similar to the likes of Kirk Hammett and Zakk Wylde, just as advertised. Now, the single coil part is cool, and for some reason, despite being an actual single coil, it doesnt seem to sound like one. Its probably just me, but I cant discern the difference. Maybe its because the last time I head a true single coil was in a Squier Strat. However, real sounding or not, the single coil does not sound bad, and is just as insane as the humbucker 81. If you're looking for something different in your humbucker, check this out today. It is most certainly worth it
