EMGJMaster System TS (Tortoise Shell Pickguard) 4 Ply /Pickups /Parchment Knobs Ivory
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
JMaster System TS brings together JMaster pickups, a 4-ply tortoise-shell pickguard, and parchment knobs in an ivory version. The Retro Active pickup design uses Alnico 5 rods and wide stacked coils; EMG describes the active pickups as hum-free. Master EQ controls are placed on the instrument’s upper horn, keeping the system’s EQ controls in that location. It is a pickguard-based pickup system, not a loose pickup set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Reworking an instrument with a pickguard-based JMaster pickup system and upper-horn master EQ controls.
- Projects calling for a 4-ply tortoise-shell pickguard with parchment knobs in an ivory version.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Projects that require loose pickups rather than a pickguard-based system.
