The EMG Retro Active Hot 70-7 set utilizes ceramic magnets in the bridge and alnico 5 in the neck producing high output Van Halen and ZZ top like tone of the late 70’s. This set is specifically designed for seven string instruments. This traditional open coil design set has a vintage look that players love. Each pickup is outfitted with a uniquely voiced plug-in FET preamp giving you low-impedance output while alleviating virtually all noise, hum and buzz common in passive pickups. The outputs are voiced to give you an even volume between the neck and bridge for smooth pickup transitions.

This powerful pickup set is available in black and zebra. The Hot 70-7 set delivers all the passive feel and dynamic response of traditional passive humbuckers combined with all the advantages of active technology. Complete versatility is at your fingertips from the biggest rock tones to the sweetest cleans and everything between. The past has never sounded so good.

Make sure to check the instructions for pickup measurements before purchasing to compare your existing pickups with EMG models.

All EMG Pickups are built to order. Estimated shipping is between 7-14 business days.

    I swapped out a 57-7H/66-7H combo on a Hellraiser hybrid hoping to get more of the bright, peaky leads of Van Halen while still providing the punch and clarity typical of EMGs. This set did exactly that, and some more. Wiring is incredibly easy with quick connect. If you want a 7 string that is a little dialed back from the common “balls to the walls configuration”, while still delivering all the power, clarity and qualities of active pups, this is it.
