/g/ New Guitar Appresh[views:12352][posts:74]____________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 1:11am - NoodleFace ""] I used to hate emgs when I played my Blackmore, Fireball, and Powerball.. however now that I use a 5150 I love the EMGs. I love them so much that I just sold my ESP M-II with passives because the RG550 is my new main guitar. To each his own, really. I won't replace the pickups in this guitar for sure. |

| _____________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 10:11am - immortal13 ""] In my opinion, active pickups sound better. But that's all for bass. Guitars don't really matter to me as much because all I really do is play in my room. |

| _____________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 2:54pm - corpus nli ""] the 60 is easily the best emg out there. SUPER underrated and easily the most versatile. of course this is nothing but semantics to you anti-emg doods. an 81 is was way to harsh imo for a bridge pu. if it wasnt 'cutting the mustard' its because your axe is prob made of super young, and probobly mank ass wood (swamp ass / basswood.)... |

| __________________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 3:05pm - largefreakatzero ""] I like the EMG 60 -- I have one in the bridge position in my Ibanhad. It's warmer and not as brash sounding as the 81 -- though I like the nastiness of the 81 as well. |

| _____________________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 3:24pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] The 60, at least in my LTD, paled in comparison to the 81 in terms of tone. When I played the LTD with the 60 in it, notes sounded like they were missing or too subtle all over the place and sounded a bit too dry; it also did not pick up the attack I was giving the strings, essential for proper slamming. As soon as I started playing Eliot's Schecter (which is now my Schecter) with an 81 I realized how much of a difference there is. Now that there's an 81 in the LTD, the sound is nearly identical to the Schecter. If you want I'll still measure my dick for you. :* |

What's the point in having two guitars then? |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 6:58pm - markfuckingrichards ""] Well, they're not completely identical, plus they both feel different. The main reason to have both though is that I need a back up, since I break tons of strings. And, eventually I'm going to need 2 guitars both tuned differently (1 for Composted and 1 for The Body Farm). |

| _____________________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 8:36pm - markfuckingrichards ""] Backup guitars are for dudes who utilize their phalloi inside various orifices of females in a sexual manner. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 8:42pm - Martins ""] Wait, then why do you have one? |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 27,2008 9:15pm - markfuckingrichards ""] Ooh good one! Ask your mom. Snap, son, snap. |
