EMG 89XR Black Guitar Pickup

EMG 89XR is similar to the 89X but the coils are reversed, so that the single coil side is closer to the neck to capture the sweet spot Strat fans love.

89XR has an organic and open voice thanks to the added headroom and response known to all EMG X pickups. 89XR features two pickups in one and houses separate X Series preamps and coils for a custom humbucker and single coil sound at your fingertips.

Loaded with Alnico V magnets, the humbucker sound is rich, warm and powerful, but still clear and articulate, similar to the 85X. The single coil mode, accessed via the included push pull pot, delivers the traditional Strat single coil sound: bright, airy, and chimey, and is very similar to the EMG SA. In either mode, the clean sound is gorgeously pristine and has a lot of presence.

Usually works best in the neck position. Whether you are playing hard rock or jazz, you can get it all with this beautifully balanced and versatile pickup.

X's are often described as bridging the gap between passive and active tone and feel.

EMG's solderless installation makes swapping your guitar pickups easier than ever.
