What about me? I guess I don't count in music world.
I have experience with EMG 81's myself, and I would definately suggest them!
As for the Amp, what are you looking for? Full stack, half stack, compact amps?
If you're looking for pure power and tone, with an assload of digital effects get a Marshall head. The MG100HDFX head is a powerhouse and sounds badass, especially when paired with a Marshall 4x12" cabinet. I got my head off ebay for $150 used, but a buddy of mine just picked up similar though 150 watt head for $200 off some one at our local Guitar Center, and then bought a Marshall 4x12 for another $200.. Got a $1400 half stack for only $400! I was rather impressed.
The concussive force coming off his rig at volume level 3 ( out of 10 ) was powerful enough to make it hard to breath a few feet away from the cabinet. The neighbors were coming out of their houses to see what the hell was going on.
