85-8H

The 85-8H is based on one of EMGs first pickups, the 85. Featuring close aperture coils loaded with Alnico V magnets, the 85-8H is a powerful eight string guitar pickup with exceptional tone and versatility. The Alnico magnets of this model provide a muscular growl and smooth lead tones enabling you to play everything from the blues to the most extreme metal. Although often used in the neck position, make no mistake, the EMG 85-8H sounds great as a bridge pickup thanks to its exceptional smoothness and soul.

This pickup pairs well with just about every other humbucker in our line and comes in a number of finish options: chrome, brushed chrome, gold, brushed gold, black chrome, and brushed black chrome. Using EMG's solderless system makes changing your tone easier than ever.

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.
