Snork Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 does anyone know if they can achieve a "quack" similar to the holy grails? I want a jazz/blues/rock/metal sound and i dont know if the EMG will do it in the neck position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Fruit Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 IIRC, holy grails are Lace's yeah? Well, Dave Gilmour of pink floyd (One of the greatest players, imho) went from his Laces over to EMG SA's and still got a great gutsy sound out of them, that I m guessin will be just as good for blues! And Rock sounds will just roll out of it, again listen to gilmours work on Pulse. Any way, toodle pipp! Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 Gilmour also uses the SPC and I think the EXG with his pickups. I love his sound. Of course he's also got walls of electronics to produce that sound but it all starts with the guitar/pickups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 The DG-20 system is extremely versatile, a bit pricey, but it is badd beyond belief! It might just get you everything you want - check it out! EMG DG-20 David Gilmour System Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Fruit Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 The DG-20 system is extremely versatile, a bit pricey, but it is badd beyond belief! It might just get you everything you want - check it out! Just what i was thinking, more powerful than a lot of 'buckers, great Dirty sound and clean, OMG it is a beautiful sound. Rock, blues and even metal jump out of it, these are going into my first strat. Any way, back to Sam's thing: They should be more or less perfect for what you want, and if you dont like em, I'll take em off of your hands Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarMaestro Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 Just out of interested: In which ways does the sound of the EMG singelcoils differ from standard Fender USA singlecoils? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 a little brighter and sharper.....but i really don't reccomend them for metal...anything up to heavy rock is good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
