I haven't had EMGs for years, but I do remember one thing. Make sure you don't forget to unplug your guitar or your batteries will last much shorter...

You wouldn't want to. They either won't work, or the signal would be very weak. If you don't want a battery in the chain, rip them out and replace them with passive pickups like DiMarzio, Seymour Duncan, etc.

The ones in my Hellraiser lasted a damn long time. I'm not sure if Drew's changed them out, but if not it's been 6-8 or so months and still going.

yes you can....you can set it up to use TWO batteries


You've got your head down
You've got your eyes closed
You look so pitiful now

Your body encrusted with ash
Breath heavy with toxins
Hair singed and matted
Clothes frayed and burnt

You are left with nothing

You could always replace the neck 707 with a solar panel. At least then it would be useful.

the HZ's by EMG are passive. you might want to check them out as well.

We all need to be adopting green energy sources: solar, wind, alternative fuels. we only have one planet to live on.
