@JAWS1349 pretty sure the pickup itself is completely passive however mine wouldnt work until i put a battery in it, but that mightve been because the gain boost was engaged and i didnt realise. either way my battery still hasnt died so im inclined to believe its passive
Well I been researching and this pick up is passive and no active so it does not require a battery like the active emg 81,85. All emg hz pickups are passive so they do not require a battery.
@deadbeautifull we used to be The Art of War but we're probly gonna change it soon, we have a myspace but theres no tracks up yet. check it out if you want its /theartofwarottawa
@slashmaniaks2 lol the guitar itself is a cheap japanese made knock off, i paid almost as much for the pickup as i did for the original guitar, that was before the sick paint job it has now though xD
yea it is, and it took me forever to figure out why i couldnt get it working. i finally put a battery in out of desperation to get it to work, so im guessing the pre-amp/gain boost requires the battery
lol the guitar isnt an alexi signature, its just the pickup. if you watch some of my older videos you can see how the guitar was before i pimped it out xD
hi, me again, lol. i watched this on a compute with sound and it sounds pretty sick, but do you think you can get a good follow the reaper-esque tone out of it? or would something else be better
i dont have sound on my computer so ill just ask, would you recommend this or an 81 for a bridge posistion lead sound. ive been leaning tward this because of the EQ and boost, and i love alexi's sound anyway.
i have yet to try the 81, but if u like alexi's tone then definatly go for the alx, its abit more money but with the built in eq and gain boost its well worth the money
I know I don't get if its an ALEXI sig pickup they dont put the cables for his guitar Imma just head to radio shack today and go solder it in cause i haven't played guitar in like a week I need something to do with my hands My dick looks like i through it out a car door now haha =p
no problem dude, yea it took me soo long to put the thing in, and the instructions are pretty bad.. so if i can help people with it so they dont have to go thru that, i will :P
Hey i bought Alexi sig pickup too but how did you wire it? cause the wires to connect to the jack are too small to connect with a V shape guitar like mine and yours
yea when i bought this, it was between Zakk wylde or Kerry King emg set for my explorer or this, im definately buying it as soon as i can, i love the sound of an 81/85 combo xD
the volume pot from the guitar gets eplaced with the emg pot, so you can put it in any guitar, but you have to replace the volume knob with the one on the emg
thanks dude, but i wasnt intentionally tryin to be funny (although i know it seems that way), im just that retarded around friends.. very wierd sense of humor xD
Yeah lol I got the emg and its installed on a Alexi 200. I don't have anything to record a video with though. Anyone know a good cam, not to expensive to just to put videos up. thanks let me know please I have like 7 songs I can cover with solo's
lol thanks, yeah i noticed before i got the pickup that there wasnt a single gear review/demo of it so i thought i'd make one to help all the possible customers out there :P im planning on making a more in depth review in the near future, there is some stuff like tonal possibilities that id like to add
Dude what songs were you playing the one at like 1min sounded awesome. also I bought this pickup for a floyd. does the box say Falx set on top because I'm wondering . . what song r they lol !!! damn sounded fkin gr8
motherfucker u poser you are damn you and your friend, you play as the back, kissing the shadows you out as the mushroom and slowly cover him touch her mother fuckers. The only good thing you have is Alexi Laiho pickups for your guitar is a shit.
First of all, learn to speak english then you can comment on my videos, Second, I wouldnt talk shit about other peoples videos when your own videos are fucking t errible, so post something with a video quality better than that of a piece of shit. BTW which guy are you, the faggot with the strat or the douchebag with the hat?
hi nice playing dude. i wana get one of these but i cant work out, does the gain boost switch require batteries to operate even if the pickups are passive. can it work with no additional power source?.
yes it does require a battery to operate, even when the gain boost isnt engaged you need a battery, too ka while to figure out why my pickup wasnt working xD
I just watched one of your videos and i definately cant that you dont know what your talking about. That being said, while i enjoy improving leads, im not a lead player. My strength lies in the rhythm section, but this video was definately off the top of my hea, which would explain the sub-par rhythm playing :)
