EMG Metal Works JH James Hetfield Humbucker Signature Set Chrome

Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Chrome EMG JH signature set supplies a JH-N for the neck and a JH-B for the bridge. In the neck position, individual ceramic poles and a larger, taller bobbin design bring more attack, output, and fuller low-end response. The bridge pickup takes a different pole-piece approach, using steel with the same type of core for tight attack and a cleaner low end from lower inductance. The set is associated with EMG’s Solderless Installation System components.
