I hope you enjoy my EMG vs. Seymour Duncan pickup comparison. If you think my videos are helpful, consider making a small donation through my website: http://www.dmometalguitar.com.
This is the second chapter of my comparison between active EMGs and passive Seymour Duncans.
I show the following:
. The neck pickups with moody solos, fat chords and clean sounds.
. The sound of both neck and bridge pickups combined.
I’m using these guitars:
. ESP M-II (Japan) with active EMG 81 pickups (bridge and neck).
. Jackson King V KV2 (USA) with passive JB TB-4 (bridge) and JB SH-4 (neck) Seymour Duncan pickups.
Then I discuss the following:
. Some players think just because a pickup is active, it’s heavier than its passive competitors. That’s a myth. Both sound equally heavy as my videos show.
. Some people say, the closer the pickup to the strings, the better the sound. Not always true. If too close, some pickups may enhance the string oscillation and create a really dirty sound.
. Players should think twice before installing expensive pickups on an average guitar because:
1. It may not be cost-effective.
2. The pickup may not retrofit the cavity.
3. A guitar sound is deeply affected by the wood and bridge’s metal. There’s no guarantee the guitar will sound good.
. If you stop playing and take your hand away from the fretboard, you’ll usually hear some undesired noise coming from the amplifier. EMGs are incredibly noise-free compared to various passive pickups.
. I explain how I was able to reduce the pickup noise/amplifier hum on my Jackson following the ground connection concept.

This is the first chapter of my comparison between active EMGs and passive Seymour Duncans.
I’m using these guitars:
. ESP M-II (Japan) with active EMG 81 pickups (bridge and neck).
. Jackson King V KV2 (USA) with passive JB TB-4 (bridge) and JB SH-4 (neck) Seymour Duncan pickups.
To make sure we have an accurate comparison, my Jackson King V and ESP M-II have similar specs and setup:
1. Both have alder body and maple neck.
2. Both have the original Floyd Rose made by Schaller.
3. Both are equipped with Ernie Ball strings.
4. I’m playing both with a Line 6 Spider amp using the “Insane” distortion and clean mode. No noise gate or pedals.
In this first chapter, I compare the sound of the bridge pickups playing rhythms, riffs, solos and clean parts.
