LACE Drop and Gain™
 

 Available in white or black covers

The ultimate in drop "D" tuning or for full articulation and punch.

This is the industry's first pickup that has been designed specifically for the drop "D" tuning and ultra high gain rock music. A totally re-designed pickup to help solve the common complaints of muddy and mushy tones, loss of single note articulation, while enhancing the guitar's own unique personality.

The Tech Talk:
Lace used slightly less magnetic than stock vintage pups - this helps cure the excessive loose string vibration (caused by the Drop Tuning) from overdriving the signal. Lace have mismatched the coils, so in the bridge pickup the one 15.1k coil of the 2 coils drives the pup hard and the other 9.0k coil pulls out the necessary articulation.

Lace's unique patented sensor design allows Lace to mismatch its coils. This can only be slightly altered in a standard humbucker or the hum cancelling effects will be lost.

Lace's pickups are single coil, with very little hum, so when they combine them in a humbucker pickup, Lace can greatly increase its dynamic range without adding noise, thus making the Lace "Drop and Gain" pickup unique in design, tone and functionality.

This neck pickup will give you that big, fat, over wound humbucking sound. It is one killer neck pickup. Not used solely for "Drop and Gain" work its also used in baritone guitars and with standard tunings. The Lace "Drop and Gain" pickup will work well for all types of musical styles.
