Description
The EMG-SA Set takes the vintage Strat single-coil recipe and turns up the output without losing the character that made it famous. Each pickup uses an Alnico bar magnet to preserve that familiar high-end sparkle, while EMG’s active circuitry adds midrange muscle and a hotter signal than a typical passive single-coil. The result is a pickup that cleans up beautifully but breaks into a smooth, bell-like overdrive with real harmonic complexity and extended sustain — a tone that’s earned fans in players like Steve Lukather and David Gilmour.
This is a complete, ready-to-install set built for a standard pickguard layout, arriving prewired with volume and tone controls plus a 5-position switch, so you’re not left hunting for extra parts.
