Thanks for the post! I never met an EMG pickup I didn't like. The shear volume, the gain, the punch, the detail, just killer. It's really, really, hard to replicate what EMGs do with passive pickups. To each his own, of course, but for my money it's tough to beat active electronics and EMG tone. It's not for everyone, but It's certainly for me
I added the "KERRY KING" EMG Set to my Les Paul shaped Minarik Lotus and the difference was staggering. The Kerry King set is a traditional 81/85 with the addition of a 20 Decibel booster flip switch. Without the booster, the pickups scream, with it, they border on Insane and have to be leashed back a bit.

It could be a good sounding pickup, depending on the guitar and the amp.
