I have a 1984 epiphone explorer that has EMG 81 60 in it (I swapped the original 85 for a 60). I used the neck pickup. I have a Digitech whammy DT that used the higher dry octave setting to give it a twelve string sound and my guitar was tuned to E standard.
Not bad; I've been playing for 20+ years and it's better than me. Definitely some wonky notes that need fixing, but overall it's better than 80% of guitarists will ever be able to do.
