A ceramic humbucker with rich harmonic overtones.
The EMG 60X Active X Series ceramic humbucker packs plenty of output with a balance of thick, boosted mids, big lows and singing highs. Featuring close aperture coils, this model produces rich harmonic overtones with plenty of sustain. Due to its ceramic magnets, the EMG 60X has a full treble response and loads of output, great for distinct single-note solos. With the addition of the X Series preamp, the 60X provides even more clarity and character to your guitar than the original. The X series preamp gives the pickup a more dynamic range along with increased headroom while keeping the more traditional string-to-string balance. X series pickups also come with an Active Tone Control (VLPF) designed to roll-off (attenuate) high frequencies, similar to a typical passive tone control. The result is a noiseless guitar pickup with a classic EMG sound that bridges the gap between active and passive.
