X's are often described as bridging the gap between passive and active tone and feel. The X series provide increased headroom, giving the guitar pickup an organic and open voice while still maintaining the clarity and response that EMG's are known for. Whether you are playing hard rock or jazz, you can get it all with this beautifully balanced and versatile pickup. Used equally in bridge and neck positions. In either mode, the clean sound is gorgeously pristine and has a lot of presence. The single coil mode, accessed via the included push pull pot, delivers the traditional Strat single coil sound: bright, airy, and chimey, and is very similar to the EMG SA. Loaded with Alnico V magnets, the humbucker sound is rich, warm and powerful, but still clear and articulate, similar to the 85. Featuring two pickups in one, the 89X houses separate preamps and coils for a custom humbucker and single coil sound at your fingertips.
