The Bass
pickup of choice since it was developed. The EMG-P, like all the
original EMG's, went through a redesign in 1979. The original
"Embossed EMG Logo" model made everybody sit up and
listen. The pre-79 models are still used by players like Lee Sklar
and Alphonso Johnson. More than just a few have gravitated to the
EMG-P for stage performance and studio recording. The EMG-P uses
short, squat coils that have very little resistance and plenty of
inductance. Because the coils are not in series like the passive
types, there's about twice as much low end as a passive pickup.
Ceramic magnets are used to add clarity. Countless pros use it
because they find it has a natural presence, powerful lows, punchy
mid-range, and superior definition.
The EMG-P
features hum-free noiseless operation with an even timbred response.
The P design was adapted for Ned Steinberger and became the EMG-SS (Steinberger
Sound) used exclusively on the Steinberger Headless Bass. In order
to make the composite bass sound more natural, we added steel poles
for warmth and midrange. In addition to the standard EMG-P Pickup,
the EMG-P5 and EMG-P6 are available for use in five and six string
basses respectively. Maximum overall string spacing for the EMG-P5
is 2.6 inches (66mm), and for the EMG-P6 is 3 inches (76mm).
Package Includes: EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect™
cable, prewired solid shaft volume/tone control set, output jack, battery clip set,
adjustment screws.
