Frequently asked questions
What is the main difference between these two products?
The PPP Kit is internal wiring hardware for EMG pickup installation in a three-pickup configuration. The EXG is an external active tone control device that connects to any guitar regardless of pickups or wiring.
Can I use the EXG with my existing guitar without modification?
Yes. The EXG works as an outboard tone processor with active or passive pickups and requires no internal guitar modification or soldering.
Do I need soldering skills to install the PPP Kit?
No. All components are solderless, making installation accessible to beginners, though basic guitar hardware familiarity is helpful.
Can the PPP Kit and EXG be used together?
Yes, they serve different purposes and can be combined — the Kit installs EMG pickups with wiring, and the EXG adds external tone control to any setup.
