EMG Revelation-F Passive Humbucker Pickup Set in Brushed Chrome
The EMG Revelation-F captures a balanced, articulate passive humbucker voice without active circuitry or battery dependencies. These covered pickups deliver smooth, controlled output that translates cleanly to tape and DAW, making them ideal for recording sessions where you need authentic passive character with modern construction reliability. The solderless connectivity system streamlines studio setup and modification, minimizing downtime during sessions.
Tone & Recording Performance
With 13.5K bridge and 13.8K neck DC resistance, the Revelation-F produces a warm, slightly compressed response that sits naturally in dense mixes without requiring excessive EQ intervention. The 250 Gauss neck and 300 Gauss bridge pole magnets generate sufficient output for pristine clean takes while preserving natural sustain, translating effectively across jazz voicings, ambient textures, and moderate overdrive layers.
Build & Studio Integration
Precision-wound custom bobbins paired with Alnico 2 magnets and stainless steel construction ensure consistent tracking performance across multiple sessions and climate-controlled environments. The included solderless connectivity system with 4-wire plus shield conductors eliminates traditional soldering, and the complete component kit—including dual 500k pots, stereo output jack, mounting hardware, and all necessary cables—enables same-day installation so you can begin recording immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the Revelation-F set?
The complete kit includes both bridge and neck pickups, two 500k volume pots, two 500k tone pots, a stereo output jack, dual pickup in/out bus, mounting screws, springs, pickup cables, and output cable. Everything needed for same-day installation is supplied.
Do these pickups require a battery or active electronics?
No. The Revelation-F is a fully passive design with no active circuitry or battery needed. They deliver warm, articulate tone using Alnico 2 magnets and stainless steel construction without power management concerns.
How do the Revelation-F pickups compare to other passive designs?
With 13.5K/13.8K DC resistance and 250/300 Gauss pole strength, the Revelation-F sits between classic designs like the Seymour Duncan '59 and more aggressive options, offering balanced output suitable for jazz, blues, and moderate overdrive—not optimized for extreme metal or djent tones.
What is the solderless connectivity system?
The solderless system uses 4-wire plus shield conductors to connect pickups without traditional soldering, reducing setup time and allowing quick modifications or swaps without tools or electrical experience.
Are these pickups durable for regular live use and studio sessions?
Yes. Precision-wound custom bobbins, stainless steel construction, and Alnico 2 magnets provide consistent performance across temperature and humidity changes, making them reliable for both stage and session work.
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 $17 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.
