if they made a flat black les paul with that neck it would be the sickest shit ever and a higher nut

just throwing this out there.. uhm your clean section wasnt clean. you had chorus and echo on.... id prefer to hear it actually clean with absolutely no effects. just straight amp would be the best no pedal. in fact run it through an acoustic amp lol.

but yea. i hear these pickups are really good but im just not sure if there worth the money

@awsomericskate It's not just you bro. I owe a PRS SE Torero with this set and I use my 85 for clean and 81 for gain. Unless I want a fat sound, then i gain the 85 xD

[rrgert4]

@cyclist911 if u run a pedal with clean is it the same like plugging without a pedal

Careful guys, if you have pre-2004 emg pickups (still has solderless) harness the preamp section of the pickups has a different modulation chip and will short out when you have the 18 volt mod attached. Be careful, contact the manufacturer or check the serial number before attempting this!!
