darkandrew Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) A little while ago I replaced the stock MEC PJ set in my Warwick SS1 with an EMG PJ-X set. The PJ-X set are fine but, in all honesty, not all that different from the stock MECs. I am now considering changing the "X" set for standard EMG PJs but am not sure what the difference will be. In terms of what I would like them to be, I would hope they were a bit more compressed with a meatier thump at the bottom end.

iiipopes Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I have the "JX" in a soapbar version. It is a bright, dynamic pickup. I also had the P-5 in a soapbar housing. It was very middy. The standard active P-J setup will be just as middy on the P and only slightly less bright on the J. If you want thump, consider one of the "CS" pickups, which I changed to for a neck pickup, or go back to passives with the EMG Geezer P/J set, which is reputed to have more low end, or "meat."
