The EMG JH HET Set is a signature guitar pickup crafted in collaboration with James Hetfield. In early 2009, Hetfield challenged EMG to create a 'stealth' set that combines the clarity and punch of a passive pickup with the legendary active tone. Available in EMG Metal Works Finishes and with a solderless installation system, this set includes the JH - N (neck) and JH - B (bridge) pickups. The JH - N has individual ceramic poles and bobbins with a larger core, delivering more attack, higher output, and a fuller low end in the neck position. The JH - B uses a similar core but with steel pole pieces, offering a tight attack and a cleaner low end. The Metal Works collection offers six stainless - steel cap options in Gold, Chrome, Brushed Gold, Brushed Chrome, and Brushed Black Chrome, giving players more premium choices. The package comes with EMG's exclusive solderless install system, including volume and tone pots, a battery bus, an output jack, and various cables.
Using this EMG James Hetfield Signature Guitar Pickup Set is easy. First, install it using the included solderless installation system. You don't need to be an expert; just follow the steps with the provided components like the volume and tone pots, battery bus, and cables. When you're playing, you'll notice the clear and powerful sound right away. As for maintenance, keep the pickups clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe them down regularly. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this could affect their performance. Also, make sure to check the battery regularly if it's a battery - powered setup. If you want to change the look, you can choose from the different cap options in the Metal Works collection to give your guitar a unique style.
