EMG Active PU Swapping

[jpp413]

I know that if I install say a ZW set, then I also need to install the new pots and input jack ensemble. My question is, let's say that down the road, I want to swap the 85 for an active 60 ---- can I just swap the actual PU, or would I need to swap pots again?

 

In other words, once you have installed active EMGs (along with the appropriate pots and jack), can I swap out with other active EMG hums without worrying about installing anything else?

 

Thanks in advance.

Yes, and the nice thing is that EMGs now come with a clip that makes it so you don't even have to unsolder anything you just simply unclip one and clip in the new one.

you can swap out any EMG bucker for another EMG bucker with no other switching needed(pot,caps,etc)

if you have a 85 and want to install a 60 just use the quick connect at the pup.

yeh i think swapping emgs is probly the easiest thing ever... i dont even think you need the cable that comes with the emg. just plug it in and your done.

yeah i think all companies should take this approach seeing how many players like to experiment with swaps:)
