I was joking by asking them to donate a Gibson Les Paul to you. :p
Oh, I heard EMGs pickups sounds very metal/rock tone but if there's too much distortion, you can't hear the difference of playing power chords or something? That's what I heard.

Oh my ghosh, you're more greedy than me!
But back to the topic, shall we?
What I don't understand is why pickups alone can be more expensive than some average guitars... At least here or to my knowledge of guitars. Why?

actually i'm not greedy......that's how much a custom shop gibson zakk wylde camo guitar costs.
correct, back to topic.
well some cheapie guitars use cheapie pickups.
after market pickups are in a sense custom, because they are wired for a certain sound or tone. hence the elevated pricing.

Yeah... And their signature names too...
I don't believe fame can jack up a guitar until I saw a Carlos Santana PRS signature guitar. 3 of them...
1 at S$2500
1 at S$3300
1 at S$4500
Now that's nuts. PRS + Santana => Priceless.

yeah it's funny what people will pay for a guitar just because a famous artists' name is on it.

It sure seems like this is coming together quite nicely. You should be rockin' in no time. What else do you still need? Maybe make a list for us so we can keep track. --Jason
