Hey MJMP, I don't recall being that plussed with the MP1 cleans either so I got a nice surprise during testing of these new units.

But then use an MB-1 for cleans.
- will also work well with the downtuned black metal 8/9-stringer you do not yet have.. :headbanger:

Well I thought about the MB-1 but on the other hand ,let's say my mp-1 goes down at a gig I would like to have a backup so I'm stuck with a MP-x

Well best we help you come up with some nice MP2 clean patches then  :thumb-up:   Do you have any coil switching options on your guitars ? While it's not impossible, I've found it harder to get good cleans from straight series humbuckers. Putting the coils in parallel helps but with EMGs I don't know, they are already low impedance aren't they ?

You know.. EMG makes several different active pups with each their own sound scape..

Did you notice the new EMG Retro Active Pickups?
Just saw this thread about them: http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/showthread.php?t=317160
