Description
That soaring, singing lead tone from Pink Floyd’s biggest moments and Gilmour’s solo work isn’t an amp trick — it’s this pickup system, built to his exact spec and now prewired for a drop-in install. The EMG DG20 gives you the active SA single coils in ivory with alnico magnets, but the real magic is in what surrounds them.
- Ivory SA single coils loaded with alnico magnets for that glassy, articulate top end
- EXG guitar expander circuit adds tonal girth without muddying the highs
- SPC presence control dials in extra earthiness and midrange bite unique to the Strat platform
- Everything arrives prewired on a custom 11-hole white pearl pickguard with white knobs
Thanks to EMG’s Solderless Install System, there’s no iron required — just transfer the wiring harness and controls over and you’re playing. No hunting for compatible pots, no guessing at wiring diagrams.
EMG-DG20 specs: Alnico magnets, 4.45 kHz resonant frequency, 1.0V output (string) / 1.50V (strum), -91 output noise @ 60Hz, 10 kOhms output impedance, 1,240 microamp current draw @ 9V, roughly 500 hours of battery life, 27V DC max supply.
EMG-EXG specs: -117 dBV noise, 2 kOhms output impedance, 410 microamp current draw, roughly 600 hours of battery life.
This is a complete, ready-to-mount package — pickups, EXG, SPC, pickguard, and knobs — built exactly to the specification David Gilmour uses live and in the studio. Drop it in and chase that unmistakable, otherworldly lead sound.
