Description

EMG H1-N Passive Humbucker Pickup in Black

The EMG H1-N is a ceramic-magnet neck humbucker built for players who want articulate, controlled output without active electronics. Its overwound coils and medium-high output deliver presence and definition across classic rock, blues, and vintage-leaning tones where passive tone shaping gives you the edge on stage.

Tone & Output

With a DC resistance of 13.65 kOhm and inductance of 7.15 Henries, this pickup produces a medium-high output that sits comfortably in modern amp circuits without overwhelming them. The noiseless design kills hum while the ceramic magnet delivers warmth and natural sustain—the traditional humbucker character that cuts through live mix without muddiness.

Design & Installation

The black cover provides aesthetic consistency and shielding in any rig. Installation is straightforward with included mounting screws and springs, and the quick-connect cable system speeds up wiring—the package includes a pickup cable, two connect cables, output cable, and ground cable for complete connectivity out of the box.
