EMG ACB-5 Active 5 String Banjo Pickup with Dual Coil Alnico Magnet Design - Black

The EMG ACB-5 banjo pickup is the the choice of pro players due to its authentic recreation of the instrument's natural tone and low noise. This pickup allows players the ability to hear the banjo amplified without giving up any of the tone they love.

The EMG ACB uses a dual-coil Alnico magnet design. The pole pieces compensate for an even string balance for a variety of string gauges. This innovative design has the coils spaced apart from one another creating acoustic "chambers".

These gaps allow sound waves inside the banjo to resonate around the coil walls adding an acoustic quality that has not been achieved in a magnetic pickup until now. Whether recording or performing live, the ACB produces a true banjo tone that is noise free.

The EMG ACB-5 Banjo Pickup is specifically designed for the unique tonal needs of banjo players, combining clarity, responsiveness, and high fidelity. Known for its dual-coil design, the ACB-5 delivers a natural acoustic sound while maintaining a quiet, hum-free performance, ideal for live settings or studio recording.

EMG’s proprietary design ensures that the tonal nuances of the banjo are captured accurately, enhancing each pluck and strum with precision. The compact design allows for easy installation without drilling or major modifications, making it a preferred choice for professional and casual banjo players alike.​
