Stupid ESP EMG Question
Look, I know this is a stupid question but I haven't found it on the sites(ESP or EMG) and if I get crap for this I don't care as long as I get a simple answer, but what pickups does the EC-1000(See thru black cherry) have factory and which is in which position. An answer will be much appreciated.

do you want an easy way of finding out what emgs you have?
here goes:
EMG 81 - Silver EMG Logo
EMG 60 - Grey EMG Logo
EMG 85 - Gold EMG Logo
EMG 89 - Red EMG Logo
Its as simple as that
and the good thing about emgs is that if you want to swap the pickup for another emg, you dont have to rewire it, just unscrew the current emg, take the wire out, then plug the wire into the replacement emg then screw the pickup into the guitar. but that only works with quick connect EMG's (81-60-60A-85..etc etc). im sure your guitar came with emg quick connects becuase is new right?
hope that helped

Ive got a 60 I might trade or sell you, I like the cleans on the 60's a lot. |

i'd prefer trade... otherwise i'd just have an 85 lying around. 
i like the 85, but my rg can't handle the super clean tones like my parker can.
