EMG-P Bass Pickup EMG-P Bass Pickup

The Bass pickup of choice since it was developed. The EMG-P, like all the original EMG's, went through a redesign in 1979. The original "Embossed EMG Logo" model made everybody sit up and listen. The pre-79 models are still used by players like Lee Sklar and Alphonso Johnson. More than just a few have gravitated to the EMG-P for stage performance and studio recording. The EMG-P uses short, squat coils that have very little resistance and plenty of inductance. Because the coils are not in series like the passive types, there's about twice as much low end as a passive pickup. Ceramic magnets are used to add clarity. Countless pros use it because they find it has a natural presence, powerful lows, punchy midrange, and superior definition.

The EMG-P features hum-free noiseless operation with an even timbred response. The P design was adapted for Ned Steinberger and became the EMG-SS (Steinberger Sound) used exclusively on the Steinberger Headless Bass. In order to make the composite bass sound more natural, we added steel poles for warmth and midrange. In addition to the standard EMG-P Pickup, the EMG-P5 and EMG-P6 are available for use in five and six string basses respectively.

Package Includes: EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect™ cable, prewired solid shaft volume/tone control set, output jack, battery clip set, adjustment screws.

Options Available: Black, White, or Ivory cover cap.


EMG-PHZ EMG-PHZ

The PHZ pickup uses a typical "side-by-side" setup with a ceramic magnet and steel core for a fatter tone. It can also be used as a direct replacement for all Fender-style instruments. All HZ Pickups have EMG's exclusive 5-wire quik-connect output allowing any number of wiring combinations, and are fully shielded for a minimum of noise. String grounding is recommended to further decrease noise.

Package Includes: Mounting screws and springs.

Options Available: ONLY AVAILABLE IN BLACK.
EMG-P6 EMG-P6
The EMG-P6 is just like an EMG-P, except it's sized for 6-string bass instead of a 4-string.

Because the coils are not in series like the passive types, there's about twice as much low end as a passive pickup. Ceramic magnets are used to add clarity.
