Fender '75 vs. EMG JVX...

Hi,
I've just swapped the stock vintage pickups in my MIA '75 Reissue Jazz for EMG JVX pickups.
As I think they're pretty new, thought some peeps might be interested in hearing the difference:

[attachment=56888:EMG_JVX.wav]

I'm happy as it's got rid of the buzz. I'm quite staggered by how different they sound, and I'm sure a lot of you will prefer the original passives, but the EMG's sound great to me and they will make recording with isolated pickups hum free (except for my playing!)

Very interesting comparison. Thanks.

For me the original pups sound way better with a classic rounder tone - but it depends what you are going for really.

Interestingly the JVX's sound very modern and scooped (very EMGish) which is a huge surprise for me considering the JVs I have sound very classic-like.
