My first project

[Death by Uberschall]

I'm gonna go ahead and disagree.  My LP Classic came (used) with EMG 81/85, and I thought they'd be too modern, but after switching out some PAFs, some Duncans and even some humbers size P-90s, the EMGs are the most "Les Paul" sounding pickups, and nowhere near as harsh or sterile as I'd thought.  They're downright smooth through my Super.

I have EMGs in all my guitars now, and that's after trying out tons of other pickups and always going back to EMG's.
I have an 81/81/85 in a 3 pick up les paul and they are very big bottomed and boomy just like the stock pick ups only they have more richness and overtones and are way easier to get pinch harmonics with.

I also have them in a few different Schecter c-1's that I own and they sound totaly different for each guitar.
The theory that EMGs make all guitars sound like they are the same is BS imo.

My LP has the 81 neck 85 bridge, it used to be the other way around until i realized that the 85 was just a much more well rounded pickup. i also have the same combo on my EVH wolfgang at home and thers a HUGE difference. you can actually hear the difference.
