Description
Long before “noiseless single-coil” was a category, EMG invented it. The H dates back to 1974 as the very first active single-coil pickup built into a humbucker-sized housing, giving you the bite and articulation of a traditional single coil without the 60-cycle hum that usually comes along for the ride.
A ceramic magnet drives the tone here, pushing out a wide, open frequency response with plenty of upper harmonic content. That makes the H a strong pick for rhythm players who want their chords to stay defined instead of turning to mush, and equally at home cutting through a mix on lead lines that call for single-coil sparkle rather than humbucker thickness.
This listing is the ivory-finished version, wearing EMG’s signature silver logo, and it’s backed by EMG’s two-year warranty for long-term peace of mind.
- Active, noiseless single-coil design in a humbucker-sized housing
- Ceramic magnet for bright, harmonically rich output
- Includes matching volume/tone control set
- Ivory finish with silver EMG logo
- Two-year manufacturer warranty
If you’re chasing single-coil character without the noise floor that usually comes with it, the EMG H remains one of the originals worth trying.
