For over 30 years Metallicas James Hetfield has been an icon of the scene and thus an indispensable part of the "Big Four of Thrash". 110 million albums sold worldwide speak for themselves!
The history of the JH "HET" set began in the spring of 2009 when Rob Turner of Hetfield was confronted with the challenge of designing a special pickup Set with the aggressive punch and clarity of a passive humbucker as well as the powerful sound of active pickups. Rob accepted.
In the neck position, the JH-N provides a good output and attack, not least thanks to a wider coil body than a classic EMG 60. At the bridge, the JH-B also provides an aggressive sound with a tight and tidy bass range.
