Guitar Microphone

The black EMG 57TW pickup, with its alnico and steel magnets, goes from growling to biting in a single movement. The integrated push/pull function produces a simple, dry, nervous coil. Its active format includes three coils and a solderless circuit. It doesn't follow the standard, it makes one.

ARTICLE N° 107941
The EMG 57TW Black pickup is designed for strummers who like to vary textures without changing pickups. Thanks to the built-in push/pull, it switches between a muscular humbucker and a simple, sharp coil. Each retains its own identity, with a specific output voltage and adjusted frequency.

The active circuit features three coils and a mix of Alnico and steel magnets. The result? Reactive dynamics, with no parasitic saturation. Even at high volume, background noise remains contained at -107 dBV.

Its compact size and 28 mm thickness are ideal for guitars with Tune-O-Matic spacing. The 10 mm potentiometer is suitable for Strat or equivalent guitars.

The solderless EMG system makes assembly easy. All cables are supplied, from the battery connector to the stereo jack. A model with a dual personality, built for serious configurations. Nothing unnecessary, just what you need to explore different colours in the same session.

The EMG 57TW Black microphone is part of the EMG TW Series. It's easy to fit thanks to its 38 cm TW cable. You can install it in large or hollow bodies without constraint.

The TW design is a game-changer compared with traditional EMGs. The push-pull rocker and triple winding multiply the textures. The two distinct tones create a modular soundstage, especially in stereo.

You dose the grain without touching the amp. With only 160 μA consumption, long sessions become serene. You can forget about the battery while recording. The electronics hold their own, even when the stage is stretched.
