Guitar Microphone

The EMG 60A Black Chrome pickup: brilliant looks, mellow grain, direct attack. The compact coils compress just enough. Alnico coats the signal without smothering it. From warm crunch to clean rhythm, this pickup plays on balance and intensity. It's a great base for a modern setup.

If you're looking for an active microphone with a soft, taut character, the 60A Black Chrome is for you. The Alnico magnet rounds out the attack, while retaining bite in the bass. The result is a warm sound, with no blurring at the bottom.

Compared with the EMG 85, the coils are more compact. The result is a tighter magnetic field and better string-by-string definition. You'll hear the difference from the very first notes.

The pickup reacts well to nuances in playing. It goes up to 4.5 V when strumming, without breaking the dynamic range. The 1.8 kHz frequency adds relief in the midrange.

You can install it without soldering, with all the kit supplied. Volume, tone, wiring, screws: nothing more to look for. Installation is simple, clean and risk-free.

With its compact size and black chrome colour, it adds style without fuss. It's a little ally for boosting a passive setup that's a bit too conservative, without losing any musicality.

The EMG 60A Black Chrome microphone has a tight design for quick tone adjustment. Each pot variation subtly modifies the midrange frequencies. This makes live control intuitive and straightforward.

Tested on semi-hollow, it retains a clear attack. It avoids loss of definition despite the more resonant body.

When used with boost or overdrive pedals, its stable output prevents excessive saturation. This EMG reference colours the sound nicely while remaining controllable.
