The EMG MMHZ is a high-performance passive pickup designed for 4-string bass guitars, offering a balance between warmth and clarity with a powerful low-end response. It is part of EMG’s renowned line of bass pickups and is crafted for bassists who want the tonal richness of a dual-coil humbucker while maintaining the flexibility of a split-coil wiring system.

Whether you’re looking for vintage warmth or modern attack, this pickup can handle a wide variety of tonal demands. Additionally, the split-coil wiring provides an easy installation process and offers versatile wiring options for different configurations.
