A guy had bought a brand new Warwick and immediately replaced the pickups with EMG's, so these went up for sale on a no reserve auction. They are really great pickups, big and round sounding and very growly, like hitting the lower keys on a piano hard.

shanejw said:I know, and for EMG's. I've never played a bass with EMG's, but I've had a guitar with them in it and they just sound cold to me. Yep, $90 for the pair. :laughing7:
shanejw said:My only complaint about the MEC pickups is that they are a little big. I had a lot of trouble getting them in the cavities Warmoth routed out. I had to cut the corners of the pickups to "squeeze" them in. Now I don't think I'll ever get them out without ruining them. I'm glad I like them. :icon_smile:
