Great set of pickups

I’ve been playing guitar for over 30 years, just for context. I have several guitars with EMG’s, 81-85, 81-90, 81-60 and super 77. The Guyker active 601’s are similar in appearance but with a very different tone or sound. I am very impressed and happy with my purchase. The 601’s sound like a good paf style humbucker. Similar to the burstbucker, they have a great range of tone. The biggest difference to speak of is the mid range. My opinion is that the mid’s are completely scooped out on the EMG 81-85 set which is great for some types of music. Mainly metal/thrash metal. Where as the Guyker 601’s handle gain and distortion great but they clean up very well and are a much warmer pickup. I would say they are perfect for rock and blues. To my ears they sound great and can achieve the metal sound with a bit more gain. This is my first experience using the Guyker and I think they are great.
