zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Kerry King's signature model, these pickups deliver maximum distortion and metal tone. It includes EMG 81 and 85 pickups.

EMG introduces the EMG-KFK Kerry King (Slayer) signature model. The combination of the EMG-81 and EMG-85 along with the PA2 (20db gain booster) delivers maximum distortion for Kerry and Slayer's bone crushing tones. This is his exact configuration used for live and studio action.

Package Includes: EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect cables (2), 25k split shaft volume/tone (standard) controls (2), screws & springs. Also a removable Kerry King card on the box and 1 EMG / Kerry King signature collectable guitar pick.

Note: This pickup is the short shaft version.

I bought these blemeshed and the only thing blemeshed was the box. The boost circut seem worthless. I knew I should have listened to it before I drilled a hole in my guitar. The 81/85 set is great but the ONLY difference between this set and any other 81/85 set is the boost circut. For the price I paid I am very happy but if paying full price, my advice is to get the regular set or the ZW set if you need long post pots and get your boost from a pedal. The most important thing to keep in mind is that all of the signature sets still have the same standard pickups in them, just with different hardware. The boost circut in the King set and long post LP style pots in the ZW set, otherwise, standard EMG 81/85 pickups. Hope this helps.
