trali Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I was changing the batteries in my guitars and noticed that my Gibson Kirk Hammett Flying V, which I bought in www.tomassone.it three years ago has EMG H pickup in bridge, and EMG 81 in the neck. You may notice white logo on the bridge pickup and what left of silver logo on the neck pickup. (Logo colors are described here: http://www.emgpickups.com/media/productfile/h/_/h_b245_0230-0106re.pdf ) Photo of my guitar: http://xybor.ru/images/img_7312.jpg But the second to last paragraph on this page tells it is vice versa: http://www.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/Flying-V/Gibson-Custom/Kirk-Hammett-Flying-V.aspx Could you please tell me what is the right configuration?:) Maybe anyone owns this guitar. Or just knows how it's right. Or maybe someone here is Kirk himself?:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capmaster Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Well, in my guess the marketing blurbs found in the Gibson product link are wrong while the right column and the specs page are right. This makes me think that your guitar is fine, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trali Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 Finally (after 1.5 weeks) got an answer from Gibson customer service: "Your observation is correct, the guitar model you own has the EMG 81 in the neck position and the EMH in the bridge position. The information on the website will be corrected ASAP." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems allot of stuff has to come off to get to em? Volume knob etc? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
