EMG’s new E-Series Pickups feature the commonly used slim soapbar cap design. Unlike any other EMG design, the E-Series feature wide aperture coils with ceramic magnets, delivering powerful low end while retaining the articulation modern bass player requires. The E Series pickups unlock a multitude of bass models for simple, drop-in EMG upgrades.

Designed with versatility in mind, the E-Series can excel in a wide range of genres and playing styles. Just like all EMG active pickups, the E Series are free from hum and buzz, and include solderless wiring kits for simple, DIY installation.

For further tonal shaping, the E Series pickups are compatible with EMG’s wide range of bass EQ’s and accessories, so the tonal possibilities are virtually endless.

From No Treble web site:

Geoff Gould has been instrumental in the development of the bass guitar. As a co-founder and president of Modulus, he developed graphite necks and pioneered the 35-inch scale length for production basses. Nowadays, he builds basses under the G. Gould brand, where his creative designs know no bounds.

This week, we’re checking out the GGi5-Studio^3, a bass that utilizes progressive technology with organic looks.

The five-string bass utilizes a graphite composite neck with dot inlays to mark its 24 frets. Another interesting aspect is its pickups. Gould fit the GGi5-Studio^3 with three of EMG’s new E5W pickups as well as an EMG 3-channel mixer.
