EMG REV Revelation Signature Passive Alnico 2 Humbucker Guitar Pickup Set, Black

The EMG REV Revelation Signature Passive Alnico 2 Humbucker Guitar Pickup Set has received mixed reviews from customers. While some customers are extremely pleased with the sound and versatility that these pickups offer, others have had issues with muddy tones and difficulty achieving even volume between the two pickups. One customer installed this pickup set in a Gibson-inspired Epiphone ES 335 and was impressed with the ear candy tone and versatility it provided. They mentioned that installing the pickups required buying a 3-way switch and cutting the ends off, which was a tricky task in a 335 but worth the effort. However, they did mention that they lost the coil tap feature, which they didn't use anyway. Another customer, who had previous experience with active EMG pickups, was pleased to say that these passive EMGs surpassed expectations. They were able to achieve a massive yet pleasing sound for hard rock leads and rhythms, as well as great clean tones with substantial quality. However, another reviewer mentioned having difficulty with the pickups in a Les Paul, as they became muddy and it was hard to get even volume between the two pickups. They suggested finding a lower output pickup for the neck in a Les Paul type guitar. Overall, the EMG REV Revelation Signature Passive Alnico 2 Humbucker Guitar Pickup Set has the potential to provide excellent tone and versatility, but it may require some adjustments and experimentation to achieve the desired sound, depending on the guitar type.
