EMG's Online Wiring Book


Building a guitar with EMG pickups isn't hard. Each pickup, pickup system, and EQ/Accessory kit comes with everything you need for a complete clean installation, including all connectors, wire, and hardware.

Perhaps the most important part of the kit are the detailed instructions included with every model. The complete step-by-step installation procedures cover the different possible configurations that you may encounter, so you can maintain the control layout and functions that you want.

Whether you are a professional guitar technician or just want to design a complex EQ setup, The Wiring Book by EMG can be a great reference. This 60-page book collects the installation guides for all our electric and acoustic pickups as well as all the EQ systems in a single handy volume. Visit the EMG Store for information on how to order a copy.

We've included some of the most popular general information here in electronic form. These sections cover the most common pickup and control configurations so you can quickly identify your setup or easily look at alternatives.

If you're building something special or have questions that aren't answered by these pages or The Wiring Book drop us an e-mail. We'll get you set up!
