Description
EMG HA Long Shaft Active Single Coil Pickup in Ivory
The EMG HA combines the clarity and articulation of a single-coil design with the noise rejection of a humbucking housing, delivering a versatile active pickup for recording sessions and studio work where definition without hum is essential. This long-shaft model ships ready to install with EMG's solderless system, making integration into your instrument straightforward and reversible. The ivory finish complements both vintage and modern aesthetics.
Design & Installation
The single-coil design housed in a humbucking form factor captures bright, responsive tone ideal for cutting through dense mixes while eliminating the 60-cycle hum that compromises recordings with traditional single coils. The solderless install system means you can experiment with this pickup without permanent modification to your instrument, and the included Quik-Connect cable and prewired split shaft volume/tone control set eliminate the need for custom wiring, getting you tracking faster.
Active Electronics & Output
This is an active pickup powered by battery, providing consistent output and low impedance signal path that translates to cleaner, more controllable recordings with less susceptibility to cable noise. The split shaft controls allow independent volume and tone adjustment at the instrument, letting you dial in your tone during takes without returning to the mixing console.
