The EMG SL20 Pro Series system features two of Steve's custom designed SLV single coil pickups and the EMG 85 humbucker with a master volume and tone. The SLV pickups are similar to the SAV pickups, but with increased coil windings for a meatier tone and pole pieces, not a bar, hidden under the solid cap for a more uniform look. When paired with the warm response of the EMG 85 humbucker, the result is a noiseless pickguard set that gives players all the diversity and response Steve Lukather demands.
