Using the EMG 81 Humbucker Pickup is easy. First, decide if you want to put it in the bridge or neck position. For a sharp, cutting lead sound, the bridge is a great choice. If you want to pair it with another pickup, you can go for the classic 81/85 setup or the 81/60 combo. When installing, make sure to follow the basic wiring instructions that usually come with the pickup. As for maintenance, keep it clean by gently wiping it with a soft cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and moisture, as this can affect its performance. And if you're not using it for a long time, store it in a dry and safe place.
