Very 81ish... but different
SergioRR3073 08.12.2021
I bought this set just out of curiosity and I was pretty surprised with it: the ceramic pickup sounds slightly different than the EMG81, I would say more open but with the same kind of typical EMG focus on the mids; the neck pickup sounds very brilliant though, a great twist on the EMG 60 in my opinion. If you want to change your typical 85/51 and you already own a 57/66 set, this one might surprise you.

Power!

It's an EMG pickup, sound amazing!
The packaging is very good and it comes with 2 tone and 2 volume pots, plus connectors, scheme and a signature Jazz III pick (just a small detail)
They sound slightly different form the 60/81 but I will not use words like crunchy, warm and blá blá blá.
They just sound better.

Excellent !!!

Easy installation, everything is clear and simple for understending how to connect and replace the old one pickups.
The sound is excellent much more better as I expected. With proper effects, amps it plays the same as the original Metallica sound. I am very satisfied with BBset. It compleately changed my guitar.

Nice sound!
stavros pap 03.03.2023
Switching from my guitar's unbranded passives was a night and day difference! No weird noise with higher gain levels and enough clarity, plus a great metal sound! Easy install that doesn't require any soldering (except if you have a long jack input like mine), and included manual covers all possibilities of combinations!

Just wow!

I use this set on my Kirk Hammet signture guitar.
The sound is incredible!
The most difference you get is on recordings.

Good job, Kirk Hammet!
