EMGMetal Works JH James Hetfield Humbucker Signature Set Brushed Gold
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
EMG's brushed-gold James Hetfield JH set pairs the JH-N neck pickup with the JH-B bridge pickup. The neck model uses individual ceramic poles and larger, taller core-and-bobbin construction than the 60 for more attack, higher output, and a fuller low end in the neck position. At the bridge, steel pole pieces and the same core type deliver tight attack with a cleaner low end. Brushed Gold is one of EMG's stainless-steel Metal Works cap finishes.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Two-pickup guitar setups seeking higher-output neck response with a fuller low end and a tight, cleaner bridge low end.
Consider the trade-offs
