Robert Trujillo has been a long - time user of the EMG J Set, even before his Metallica days. Now, he combines his classic tone with a modern aesthetic. These pickups feature custom stainless - steel caps, which preserve the iconic sound that has been a staple in the music industry for decades. Designed for traditional 4 - string jazz bass spacing, they're also great for narrow 5 - string instruments. They come with EMG's exclusive solderless wiring harness, perfect for a standard volume and volume - tone setup. The package includes EMG's exclusive solderless install system with 2 25K volume controls, 1 25K tone control, 1 battery buss, 1 stereo output jack, 2 adjustment screws, 1 13.5' pickup cable, 1 9' pickup cable, 2 connect cables, 1 output cable, 1 battery cable, and 1 RT set pic.
Using this EMG RT guitar pickup set is a breeze. First, since it comes with a solderless wiring harness, you don't need to be a soldering expert. Just follow the instructions that come with the exclusive solderless install system to connect all the components like the volume and tone controls, battery buss, and output jack. When it comes to adjustment, use the provided adjustment screws to get the right sound for your playing style. As for maintenance, keep the brushed black chrome finish clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can damage the finish. Also, make sure to check the battery regularly as the pickups rely on it for power. If you notice a change in the sound quality, it might be time to replace the battery. When not in use, store the guitar in a cool, dry place to prevent any damage to the pickups.
