Pickups for Fanned Fret ERGs

Cool711 · 05-26-2007, 08:26 PM

Hey guys, I'm a die-hard EMG fan, so for my new guitar, I'm using an 808 in the neck and a DC45 in the bridge. (8 String fanned with 25.5 - 22.75 fan).

The neck works because it is probably going on straight, so it covers the strings (at 4"), but the bridge is slanted at an angle of about 25°, so a typical 808 doesn't cut it, hence the DC45.

I was wondering if you guys know about any other pickups (not active alone) that are made that can be used on ERGs like these.

Thanks.

You'd have to go custom made.
