Description
Kerry King’s tone isn’t subtle, and neither is this rig. The EMG KFK-Set gives you the exact active humbucker pairing behind Slayer’s wall-of-riffs sound: an EMG 81 in the bridge for cutting, saturated attack and an EMG 85 in the neck for thicker, more aggressive lead work. Both are wired with the PA2 Gain Boost Switch, letting you kick the output into overdrive territory for solos without touching your amp settings.
Because active EMGs run on their own preamp circuitry, you get consistent output and low noise regardless of how hot you’re pushing your amp or pedals — ideal for the kind of relentless downtuned crunch this pickup set was built for.
This bundle doesn’t stop at pickups. It also includes:
- A Fishman FT-2 clip-on chromatic tuner — just 21 grams, so it won’t load down your headstock or dull your tone. Flip the display up to power on, tune via the backlit needle display (±1 cent accuracy), then flip down to shut off. Low-profile enough to leave clipped on while you play, with a soft clip that’s safe on most finishes.
- A set of Ernie Ball Regular Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings (gauges .010–.046), the best-selling set from Ernie Ball and a favorite of players from Clapton to Steve Vai. Nickel-plated steel wound around a hex steel core, paired with tempered tin-plated high-carbon plain strings, for a balanced, road-ready tone.
Everything you need to dial in that unmistakable Slayer attack — pickups, tuner, and strings, all in one box.
