EMG57/66-LS Active Pickup Set, Long Shaft Brushed Chrome
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The EMG 57/66-LS set pairs a 57 bridge humbucker with a 66 neck humbucker in a long-shaft, brushed-chrome format. The 57 combines Alnico V magnets with steel pole pieces and is described with headroom, punch, definition and presence. The 66 uses Alnico V magnets and ceramic pole pieces for warm, smooth mids, extended lows and upper-register clarity. Its solderless installation is designed for do-it-yourself fitting.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitar pickup installations needing designated neck and bridge humbuckers.
- Players who want a solderless pickup-installation process.
- Guitars requiring the long-shaft version in brushed chrome.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Guitars that do not require a long-shaft pickup configuration.
- Single-pickup replacement projects requiring only a neck or only a bridge unit.
