Are EMG 57 66 good for metal?
EMG has addressed its lack of vintage presence with the new Metal Works 57 bridge ‘bucker and its companion, the 66 model. The 57 bridge unit, with its combination of Alnico V magnets and steel polepieces, offers trademark metal chugging rhythm tone, but it handles clean tones better than any previous EMG.

Are EMG 81 good?
While this pickup was originally designed to work with lead guitarists in mind, the 81 works amazingly well for bands with just one guitar player, as it packs plenty of punch, has great sustain during overdrive and features a distinctive fat chunky tone that works perfectly for hard rock rhythms.
What is the use of EMG?
Electromyography (EMG) measures muscle response or electrical activity in response to a nerve’s stimulation of the muscle. The test is used to help detect neuromuscular abnormalities. During the test, one or more small needles (also called electrodes) are inserted through the skin into the muscle.
Are active pickups better?
Active pickups have a higher output than passive pickups because they rely on a power source, like a battery. Basically, active pickups will give your sound more power and give you a more consistent tone than a passive pickup.
