The H4 is EMG's best-selling passive humbucker for guitar. Combining the power of the active 81 with the soul of a Classic Humbucker, this pickup delivers a well-balanced tone with tight bass response, glassy mids, and crunchy highs. These tonal characteristics are achieved through over-wound coils loaded with ceramic bar magnets, fully shielded to minimize noise.

This high-output pickup excels in the bridge position, where it offers impressive range, responsiveness, and rich harmonics. If you're after a big rock or heavy modern guitar sound, the H4 is the pickup for you.
