New Hammett's Pickups ? Confirmed ?
New Hammett's Pickups ? Confirmed ?
Hi guys,
You remember The Night Before Show, and the Custom EMG that Kirk fitted onto his Red Les Paul in the bridge position ?
I've spotted a pic last night during their show with the Sharks and I've seen this :
That's right, in one of his standard Vintage he has for heating his fingers up, he has a new EMG Prototype at the neck (or JH ?) with plots. Don't know if he has a new one in the bridge position too ...
It's seems like we'll have new signature pickup over 2016 or 2017
Cheers,
G.
I don't think it would suit to retro-fit these new KH pickups into an older KH2 guitar, but they do look quite suited to the purple sparkle guitar we see here don't they.
I also watched the recent video of Metallica playing in London and saw Kirk playing that guitar with those new pickups in it. Looked pretty cool on that guitar I must say.
Damnit i was looking to replace the Emgs in my M2 to the hetset but thought it was stupid since james guitars are mahogany and ebony. I really want these but that kh logo in the middle imo is so ugly lol. The whole reason i got my m2 was to not have the kirk sig and skulls. Hope they decide to take off the signature
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, if they suit the rest of the guitar then I am all for it. I.E- Ouija.
A plain black KH2 with these new KH pickups?? Maybe not.
A unique, say purple sparkle KH2 like Kirk's in that pic with these maybe not so bad.
But I would love to see more, clear pics of them on that purple guitar. That will definitely give you the yes or no vote I reckon.
lol I wonder if Kirk's new EMG pickups are a natural wood covered set with ouija graphics, so people with the LTD Natural Ouija can buy them.
