Independent shopping perspective
The brushed-chrome 57TW/66TW-LS set combines EMG's dual-mode, three-coil design with a long-shaft-pots configuration. Select between single- and dual-coil voices as needed: the alnico-and-steel 57TW is the bridge pickup, while the 66TW occupies the fingerboard position with ceramic and alnico magnets. The 57TW is described with high resonance and clarity; the 66TW brings a humbucker design plus a clear, powerful single-coil selection with a fluid response.
