My current bass is a LTD f-104 and i need a pickups that's got balls and enough brilliance to shine through ebladeboi123 11-19-2005, 11:09 AM Any reason why you only want EMG's? What type of pup pattern is the F-104. Humbucker? I would go with Bartolini's, or if you can find a lane poor that will fit. Biff Clurton 11-20-2005, 01:25 PM Yep they're mother'buckers; Bartolini's are too smooth for my liking, i need something that's got bite, and will rip your head off too DavidRavenMoon 11-22-2005, 11:48 AM Yep they're mother'buckers; Bartolini's are too smooth for my liking, i need something that's got bite, and will rip your head off too EMG DC humbuckers have quite a lot of bite. A whole bunch of high end. They are loud too! LoveThatBass 11-22-2005, 12:03 PM If you have an active bass then Bartolini's are nice sounding. Slater 11-22-2005, 12:20 PM You should get the pickups you want to try to get the sound that you want, but the Ashdown EB 180 and the Ampeg BA115 amps in your profile are never going to compete with Marshall half-stack guitar rigs...
