Emg 808x X Series Eight String Active Humbucker - Black

The 707 has been leading the pack of 7-string guitar pickups since its debut in 2001, and is now available in an 8-string version! Before this model was introduced, existing 8-string pickups sounded muddy and dull on the low B string, especially when trying to hit artificial and natural harmonics, but the 808 eliminates all those problems.

Whether you are ringing out Opeth-style jazzy chords or playing palm muted death chugs, even with the amp set to “kill”, these pickups will articulate every note, harmonic and squeal you ask of them. Used equally in bridge and neck positions, these pickups will forever change how you hear and pl.
