Description
EMG 707TW-R 7-String Active Single Coil Pickup in Black
The 707TW-R delivers the clarity and articulation of a single-coil design with the convenience of active electronics, engineered specifically for 7-string instruments. This reversed-coil configuration positions the single-coil element toward the neck, offering a tonal sweet spot for capturing definition across extended range recordings. The onboard preamps provide dual-mode operation—switching between tight single-coil response and fuller dual-coil character without requiring hardware modifications, giving you maximum session flexibility from a single pickup.
Tone & Electronics for Recording
Dual internal preamps—one optimized for single-coil mode and one for dual-coil mode—allow seamless tonal switching via push/pull control, letting you adapt your recorded tone without re-tracking. Resonance peaks at 3900 Hz in single-coil mode and 2300 Hz in dual-coil mode, giving you bright articulation for cutting through dense mixes and fuller body for layering and blending. An Alnico magnet structure ensures organic response with natural sustain and harmonic richness that translates cleanly to tape and digital.
Installation & Workflow
The 707TW-R ships with a pre-wired push/pull volume/tone control set, Quik-Connect cable, output jack, battery clip set, and mounting hardware—streamlining setup so you spend less time on gear and more time tracking. Battery operation via a single 9-volt cell keeps the circuit simple, dependable, and noise-free in the studio.
