Title: Need Your Love So bad with Emeralds
Post by: Rubblebrother on April 04, 2012, 10:04:09 PM

First ever attempt on Video! This is my ESP Edwards with Emeralds in the middle position through the clean Channel of my Marshall TSL with some reverb. Please be kind, I was very nervous! :D

Thanks everyone for your kind words :D I will try and upload some more of the emeralds when I feel more confident, they took a lot of getting used to, such a unique pickup  8)

Really sweet sound. In what way did you find it hard to get used to the Emeralds ?

Hi Richard, glad you enyoyed the clip, What I mean about the emeralds is they were the first BKPs I owned and as such have a much more open sound to what I am used to and the Emerald has a lot of harmonics and I find it reacts very differently to pick attack, its hard to define maybe if I could try the rest of the BK pickups I could have some perspective :D

I really enjoyed that!  That clip made me think of BKP Emeralds in my LP.  I voted it up, don't know how you could vote that down.

Great work!  :D

I've just ordered an Emerald for the bridge position of my Michael Kelly Patriot Custom. Can't wait. Nice tone, mate. I do have a question....have you played with a more cranked / over driven amp with these pickups? Just wondered if you liked that, too?
