well theyre so cheap it wouldnt hurt to try them. i think someone has copied emg technology/production procedures and are sellin the result cheap. i think its worth a try.
altho, it could be bullshit, and a ploy get your money. but still, as its in "high demand" you could always sell it off again on ebay.

i would try it. man, thats only £15. damn thats cheap.

i'd just buy a real emg 81 personally, no need wasting money on something you have no idea about. when no one has ever heard(of) or played them, it's a risk. $36 that could have gone towards a real emg.

another alternative, is buy the pickup, see how shitty it sounds, and use that shitty sound to create your OWN sound. Be unique, just like everybody else.
