Guitar Microphone

The EMG 57TW Brushed Chrome pickup switches from a single click to a double charge via push/pull. Three coils, hybrid magnets and low background noise enhance its clarity. Solderless wiring reduces hassle. With its brushed finish, assertive look and ready-to-bear spirit, it has everything to win you over.

ARTICLE N° 107936
The EMG 57TW Brushed Chrome pickup isn't here for decoration. Its triple active coil hides two very distinct characters: dense humbucker or simple dry coil. The push/pull switch changes the settings on the fly, without altering the signal.

In dual, it rises to 4.5 V strum, with a controlled frequency of 1.77 kHz. In singles, it's better, at around 3.47 kHz. The whole unit remains stable, with an output impedance of 10 kΩ and noise contained at -107 dBV.

This model fits Strat-type bodies (short potentiometer) and Tune-O-Matic bridges. It can be mounted flat or via the springs included. With its 28 mm height, brushed case and standard spacing, there's nothing to spill out.

All cables included: connectors, bus, jack, battery, detailed instructions. This pickup installs without soldering, adjusts in two gestures and reacts without diversions. It's a sober beast, but far from neutral.

Changing only the bridge pickup for a 57TW provides a clear contrast. The stock neck pickup remains warm, but this model injects punch and clarity.

This combination creates an unexpected magic, somewhere between vintage and modern. The 27V limit invites you to explore EMG external battery packs.

These modules subtly boost the signal, opening up new perspectives. For a set without pedals, varying volume and tone becomes a creative game. Raising or lowering the pick-up height refines the balance between attack and definition.

With alternative tunings, the bass remains tight and clean, even at high levels.
