Although the EMG-85 has more measurable output than the 81, its frequency response and string interface are different. The 85 uses two Alnico magnet loaded coils with a wide aperture to maintain a beefy lowend and a fatter top end. Because of a more natural tone, it works great as a rhythm and blues pickup because it has loads of output but isn't muddy. Itís a perfect choice as a rhythm pickup in combination with an 81 in the bridge, which is the same pickup combination used by Zakk Wylde. Package Includes: EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect™ cable, prewired split shaft volume/tone control set, output jack, battery clip set, screws & springs.

Unbelievable tone! I use this in the bridge with a 60 in the neck. If you like that half step low-Alice in Chains Jerry Cantrell bottom end chunk, forget the 81, this is the pickup you are looking for. Much beefier than the 81, but it still cuts through the mix in a lead. Not quite as bright, but the added low gives the easily achieved Zakk-type squeal a whole new flavor.

Incredible pickup. Put this in the neck position and just see where it takes you!I am achieving sounds like never before. I have an 85 in the neck,an SA in the mid ,and a 81 in the bridge. EMG is by far the best thing to happen to pickups. If your guitar doesn't have them,it's just not playing to it's potential. The biggest thing that I noticed was how much easier it is for me to play my guitar now. The pickups are so sensitive and clear, it's amazing! Go buy EMG's right now!!
