EMG GTV SET Glenn Tipton Vengeance Set
zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Designed with Judas Priest's Glenn Tipton, the GTV is a modified EMG 81 pickup that uses ceramic and steel magnets for tight attack and amazing clarity.
Overview
EMG is proud to announce the Glenn Tipton signature pickups, the EMG GT Vengeance Set. Known for their massive guitar tones, Judas Priest-inspired generations of metal fans and Glenn was the cornerstone of that sound. EMG pickups were the first Glenn used to give him the unique ferocity, depth, and clarity that cut through audiences worldwide. Having played the EMG 81 for well over a decade, Glenn approached EMG for a few modifications to expand his iconic metal sound.
Always reaching for more, Glenn embarked on a five year journey that led him to his signature GTV. This humbucker pickup set is unlike any other EMG in tone and feel. Using ceramic and steel magnets, the GTV maintains high output with a rich smoothness in the mid-range. With its tight attack, amazing clarity, and even response across the audio spectrum, the EMG GTV provides the knockout punch Glenn Tipton demands.
Note: This pickup is the short shaft version.

WOW , I will say this , I had to completely change the way I set up my Orange Supercrush 100 . Now I really only use my Ibanez TS9DX pedal . Amazing sustain , you can dial back the Treble for sure with this product . Crisp , clean , dirty channel is finally impressive - as it should be with an Orange Amp ~ Easy install - state of the Art Electronics ....a fabulous choice for my first build , can't put it down
Musical Background:
just play for personal enjoyment , and now building guitars
