EMG H4 Passive Ceramic Humbucker Guitar Pickup, Brushed Chrome

The EMG H4 stands as EMG’s best-selling passive humbucker, delivering a powerful blend of aggressive output and articulate clarity.

Its tight bass response, shimmering mids, and crunchy highs make it a versatile choice for guitarists seeking dynamic range and expressive harmonics. (emgpickups.com)
