The 57TW/66TW is the Dual Mode version of the popular 57/66 Set. The TW Set features selectable single and dual coil sounds using EMG’s proprietary three coil design.
The 57TW bridge pickup uses a combination of alnico and steel making it a true rocker in both single and dual coil positions. The single coil selection is smooth and seamless. The high resonance of the pickup carries the tone with unequivocal clarity.
