Guitar Microphone
With its hybrid Alnico/steel circuit and two clear-cut modes, the 57TW Brushed Black Chrome pickup pushes back traditional formats. The solderless wiring simplifies installation. This pickup remains stable under power, even at 27 volts. It's a muscular solution, designed for playing under pressure.

Presentation
The EMG 57TW Brushed Black Chrome microphone combines simple installation with modern construction. It uses a triple active coil, a mix of Alnico and steel magnets, and offers two types of response depending on the mode activated. In humbucker mode, it develops 4.5 V of strum voltage, for a broader attack.
The simple mode, triggered via push/pull, goes up to 3.47 kHz. The result is clean articulation that stands out in a busy mix. Every function is designed for solderless assembly: H1 to H6 terminals, numbered cables, clear schematic.
The microphone operates on 9V with a battery life of 1500 hours, but accepts up to 27V. An important detail for those looking for more headroom.
Active humbucker format, 28 mm height, 49 mm spacing: everything is calibrated for classic bodies. The 57TW isn't full of gadgets. It's straight to the point, with rigour and character.

To find out more...
Switching to dual coils? With this model, you lower the midrange slightly. This avoids any saturated sound puffs.
When recording, the 57TW direct into a preamp remains surprisingly clean. Every attack retains its shape, even without an amp.
Combined with a P90 neck, you get a strange fuzzy grain. The harmonics almost loop. The mix is reminiscent of some forgotten analogue textures.
Thanks to the solderless cabling, you can be daring more often. Replacing a pot or swapping two pickups is a snap. There's no stopping you in the testing phase.
You adjust, you listen, you repeat. This reference opens up unexpected possibilities. It's easy to get off the beaten track.
