The Dually itself can still be wired for its proprietary "3-in-1" mode of operation which will give you more versatility than you've ever had in your guitar. You still get vintage humbucker tones in the neck and fat single coil tones in the middle, but you now have a the searing hot lead tones coming from the bridge slot that only a Red/Red Dually from Lace can provide. You can run any combo of lace pickups with no worries about hum and phase issues as you would with standard humbuckers in an HSH setup.The Plus Ultra Pack takes the concept of our Value Pack and takes it one step further, and adapts it to guitars with an "S-S-H' pickup configuration. Lace sensors work just fine with regular pickups.Īn added bonus is that you dont have to worry about rw/rp and hum issues. I liked them all with 500k more than 250k. I have used 250k, 500k, and fenders tbx (250k up to 5 on the dial. Plus, regular humbuckers are quiet, making lace's coils unnecessary. The loss of that high end sparkle is a non starter for me. The humbuckers sound dull in comparison to standard humbuckers. The tele pickups are the same build as the strat ones. ![]() ![]() You'll get threads from as far back as 2003 or so. Be sure to select "anytime" in the date parameter. Hot gold beefs up the low end and pretty much improves on the regular goldīurgandy and purple push more towards p90 territoryĬheck out the fender forum for a bunch of info on lace sensors. ![]() Take the gold and red /silver/ blue as a baseline. It appears that lace redid their website recently. Superficial, I know, but it does count for something. Plus, they look like regular single coils. The midboost works well with gain pedals for a guy that likes a sound between singles and humbuckers. Through the clapton circuit, they are louder than dimarzio 36ths, but retain the single coil vibe. Lastly, I put a set of holy grails (replaced the hemis/hot gold setup above) in my strat running thru a clapton midboost circuit. I toy with the idea of hot golds in my next strat. Now, the hot gold i had in the middle was seriously good! I liked that one for everything. It was great for a rock setting where, again, highs would be cut back a bit. The bridge pickup was a loud tele-like humbucker. I always found the neck too fat in series and too weak in single coil mode. I ran a pair of lace hemibuckers with a 6k hot gold sensor in the middle of my partscaster for 10 years. It has a hot sound but not a huge output. It has this humbucker/single coil thing going on that I don't hear anywhere else. After 10 plus years,and playing them again thru better amps and thru better fingers, I like all three. The blue was dull, the silver just ok, and the red was cool. ![]() I had an old strat plus deluxe with the R/S/B set. I'm thinking of doing a partscaster with either their Alumitones or the Lace Sensor Red, Silver and Blue sc's. I've read they give a wide open big sound, but have no idea what that meansĭo they require specific routing, or do they work in standard HB, MB, SC routes? Has anyone used their humbucking type pups and what was the result? Did the sound differ tremendously from something more common? AlumitonesĪnyone use them, and what are your thoughts? Have you mixed these with traditional pups and what was the result? Recommended pot values to run with these.250k, 500k, etc.? Has anyone run the Red, Silver, Blue combo? It sounds right up my alley, but not sure if the Red is too hot. Not sure if the vintage tone purists will like them, but for me, it's not a necessary thing.ĭoes anyone know of a chart showing what sound the different colors represent? I looked on the Lace site and couldn't find anything Excellent cleans that work terrifically with pedals, and no hiss when running gain/distortion. Noiseless in the truest sense of the word. I played my MIM Strat with a loaded Lace Sensor Gold pickguard from a late 80's / early 90's Strat Plus, yesterday.
