Product Description
EMG JH "HET" Set LS G, Pickup Set for Electric Guitar
The James Hetfield signature set captures the clarity and punch of a passive pickup while maintaining the well-known "active" tone. They were designed according to the pickups James Hetfield has been using for 30 years. More power and a fuller low-end at the neck position, tight attack with less inductance for a cleaner bass at the bridge.
