Aright I have this Ibanez Talman electric. I want to change the pickups on it. Originally I was going to go with an EMG set (ala ZW package) but upon further look inside the guitar there are 0 spaces for the 9V batteries so I am going to have to opt for some passive pickups. I want to know what Bare Knuckle pickup might best resemble the EMG 81 and EMG 85 sound. Do these pickups honestly hold together as well as active pickups? By hold together I mean clarity and no little between noises when I stop picking. Any insight would help before I decide to order something from across the lake and have it sent here to South Florida.
