Also, look into the Seymour Duncan blackouts, they're better than the EMGs and they make them in a standard housing so you don't have to butcher the guitar. Although, with an S... You may have to make the cavities deeper, but it beats having to hack wider holes.
Actually, i got them to fit in the S7 just fine. i literally had to like, rub the sides of the ears of the cavity for like 2 seconds, and they fit that way. depth was solved really easily. If you look at the bottom of the blackouts, the bottom cover to the pup curves inward. Theres enough room there thats just the 2 covers coming together, that without ever breaking through to the internals of the pickup, you can dremel a spot for the wire to pass out the side instead of just having to bump under it, which allows enough lowering to be installed properly without shimming the neck/raising the bridge

I too prefer the blackouts to the standard emg's (817/707)
If you dont leave it plugged in, the battery lasts forever practically duder
