While the EMG-60 humbucker still features the close aperture coils loaded with ceramic
magnets for the brightest attack of any of EMG's many humbucking models, this pickup also packs plenty
of output with both clarity and cut through high end. The EMG-60 guitar pickup is incredible for rhythm guitar
as metal and extreme players have discovered. James Hetfield's signature ESP models use EMG-60s because
their distinctive crunch sets any rhythm player apart in the mix of a band that pumps a lot of mid-range from the
stage.

With a distinctive tone for soloing, the 60 works perfectly as a clear but fat lead pickup. The resonance slope is
steeper but the peak is higher than other EMG models. The EMG-60 pickup is the result of a lot of input from
different people. It is probably the most versatile humbucking pickup EMG makes, but doesn't get the recognition
it deserves.
