  • So here's a LONG video of me installing EMG ALX set to my Jackson JS32 Randy Rhoads. It's a passive pickup with 3 band EQ and gain boost. Testing video will come soon!

    Btw what are the difference between EMG-ALX and EMG-F-ALX for example are the both solderless pickups?

    • @finnishboy45

      the difference is that EMG-F-ALX is F spaced, meaning its made for floyd rose bridges, that's literally all the differences

    I had a similar problem, but i didnt have enough long wire to get from the input jack to the pot. Could you help me?
