PICKUP AND MAGNET DIMENSIONS:

All EMG-35 Models have the housing dimensions (shown above).

The drawings below show the magnet placement for these versions. You should check the width of your strings against the magnet dimensions below

to make sure there is sufficient string coverage. A rule of thumb for any pickup is that the total magnet width should be the string width plus twice

the distance the pickup is from the strings. So, If the pickup is 3/16” (5mm) from the strings, with a magnet width of 2.90“ (73.5mm) the maximum

string width would be 2.50” (64mm). If your strings are too wide for the pickups shown below, choose one of the EMG-40 Extended Series Pickups,

with a 4 inch (101mm) housing. If the pickup is 3/16” (5mm) from the strings, with a magnet width of 3.46“ (88mm) the maximum string width would

be 3.00” (78mm). If your strings are too wide for the pickups shown below, choose one of the EMG-45 Extended Series Pickups, with a 4.5 inch

(114mm) housing, where similar styles of EMG pickups are available.
