I have not tried the X series. I found the SAX and the 85X are available at a variety of places, but I do not find the SLVX anywhere. Maybe they are not shipping yet. Also on EMG's website it shows the SLVX as a set of 3.

The SLV-x is not shipping yet. I think it should be available as singles- most EMGs normally are. I think I'm going to try them. I'll let you know how I get on :)

Is the Luke going to come with the SLV-X in the future? Is Lukather even using them?

According to the description on EMGs website, the SLVX was designed for Lukather. I don't know if he uses them or not but I'd be interested in hearing how you make out with them. I might go ahead and get the 85X and try it in the bridge position in the mean time.

I think I'm going to just replace the EMGs with Duncans. I like passive pups much better anyway. Been thinking about swapping the 81 and the 85 in my other guitar for a set of Pearly gates as well. The Luke looks like it will take pretty much any of the single or stacked Duncans in the neck and middle that don't have the plate on the bottom, and the bridge looks like a standard sized Humbucker space.

there it is, you said it. just repeat after me:

"I got G.A.S... i want to try new pickups and nothing can stop me." :D
