The SA Set is one of EMG's most popular single coil pickup sets. It combines the attributes of the early Strat™ sound but with an added midrange response and higher output, giving it "bell-like" ringing harmonics and increased sustain. This active single coil set, loaded with Alnico V bar magnets sounds bright and airy, with a rich bottom end.

With internal shielding and a low impedance preamp, you get virtually noiseless pickups without sacrificing a true single coil tone. The Alnico V bar magnets allow for the output to remain balanced during big string bends that makes for a beautifully articulate tone. The creamy mid-range warmth creates sublime blues tones that are clear, strong and expressive. Experience why players like David Gilmour, Steve Lukather, Larry Carlton and more have relied on EMG single coil pickups in the studio and on the stage for years.

The SA Set comes with volume and tone controls, and a five-position switch which is all ready to mount onto your pickguard.

Question: If these pickups were to be installed in a fender strat would a hole at the back of the guitar have to be routed out for the battery compartment? Or the battery would go under the pickguard?
- asked on Feb 5, 2024
Answer: There should be room for the battery in the body cavity of most Strats.

The only advantage to a separate compartment would be ease of battery replacement.
