Frequently Asked Questions
What acoustic guitars is the EMG ACS compatible with?
The EMG ACS is designed as an undersaddle pickup and fits most standard acoustic guitars with a saddle slot. Compatibility depends on your guitar's saddle width and pickup cavity; measure your saddle before purchasing to ensure proper fit.
Does the EMG ACS require a preamp or can it connect directly to an amp?
The ACS can connect directly to a guitar amplifier or mixing console, though a preamp or acoustic amp with built-in EQ will give you more tonal control and better volume matching in live or studio settings.
How does the ACS handle feedback at high volumes?
The undersaddle design minimizes feedback compared to microphone pickups, making it suitable for stage use and recording. Feedback resistance depends on amplifier gain settings and placement in your signal chain.
What's included with the EMG ACS pickup?
The package includes the pickup element itself; you may need to source a compatible preamp, cable, or endpin jack separately depending on your acoustic guitar's existing electronics.
Is the Ivory finish different from other EMG ACS colors?
The Ivory finish is a cosmetic option and does not affect the pickup's electrical performance or sound quality—it's purely a visual choice.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $13 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
