pick ups
EMG's don't usually play nice with regular pickups. You can have both together but it's usually all of one or the other.
It's to do with the impedance of the pots used by each type.
I'm always surprised that Kiss used EMG's on the very early 80s.

Re: pick ups
I put a mix of EMG bridge and PAF neck in a dual hum guitar (my red Rhoads in fact) and I had to run the neck pp through a EMG preamp then the pup selector and a single 25k(I think) volume pot to make both work ok together.
The pre amp has a little switch on it, so I used a Vinnie style one knob/two switch pickguard.
