EMG Jim Root Daemonum Active Humbucker Pickup Set in Black
The Jim Root Daemonum set captures the aggressive, articulate response engineered for extreme metal tracking and high-gain studio work. These active humbuckers combine ceramic and steel magnets with EMG's proven preamp topology to cut through dense mixes with clarity and definition, translating tour-proven performance into your recording chain. Built in the USA, this set arrives complete with everything needed for installation and immediate use.
Recording & Signal Integrity
The active preamp eliminates unwanted noise while outputting a low-impedance signal that maintains articulation even at extreme gain settings, critical for capturing clean takes without unwanted artifacts. DC resistance of 3K paired with ceramic/steel magnets (bridge) and ceramic magnets (neck) generates tight, focused output with minimal feedback—essential for modern metal production and layering multiple guitar passes.
Installation & Complete System
Setup is streamlined thanks to EMG's exclusive Solderless Install System, which eliminates traditional wiring complexity and gets you tracking quickly. The complete package includes two 25K volume controls, two 25K tone controls, battery bus, stereo output jack, 2-pickup in/out bus, mounting hardware, and all necessary cables for integration into your studio signal chain.
