Available in
black and white "V" Series covers
Blue:
Slightly increased output with the warmer 50's
humbucking sound in a single coil configuration
Silver: A fat 70's single coil sound with increased
output and more midrange.
Red:
The hottest output of the Sensor Series. Perfect for
the bridge position when fat, punch humbucking
output is required.

After 30 years
of the legendary Lace Sensor Gold™, the wait for the
traditional "Vintage" look of the world famous pickup is now
over. The exact same Lace Sensor® patented technology is
still internally the same, we have just added the "pole top"
cover and have inserted a specially designed "aluminium pole
plate" to give the impression of the magnetic poles. Same
sensational sound, now with the Vintage look.
The Lace Sensor® family has a unique radiant Field Barrier
system that surrounds both the coil and magnets, reducing
annoying 60-cycle hum. The patented Lace Micro Combs®
replace traditional bobbins, yielding a wider tonal range
and better string balance than traditional pickups.
Unlike ordinary pickups, the Lace Sensor® generate 36 separate
magnetic "sensing" fields which, in the areas where they
contact the string, "read" the strings vibration
where as regular
pickups only generate anywhere from 4 to 12 fields.
Lace Sensors® also have Radiant Field Barriers: metal slides
which frame the inner core of the Sensors and perform two
function. The first is to shield the Sensor from the outside
noise and 60 cycle hum. The second is to produce a broader
yet more concentrated umbrella of sensing field than
standard magnetic pickups.
Less Noise, More Harmonics:
As compared to standard pickups, sensors read a greater
physical area of the string, while picking up less outside
interference. This makes the signal-to-noise ratio nothing
short of phenomenal for a single coil system. Also, a wider
range of harmonic content is read by the Sensor, delivering
a more complex tonal response.
Increased Sustain, Truer Pitch:
Since they operate so efficiently, the Lace Sensor® can utilize
the much lower energy magnets than ordinary pickups and
this in turn brings about a whole new realm of properties. In
regular pickups, the magnetic fields are so strong they
physically dampen or drag on the strings' vibration,
thus reducing sustain and actually changing the pitch. But in
the Lace Sensor, string dampening is virtually nonexistent. This
means your sustain is increased dramatically while the
string holds its true pitch for the duration of the note.
"V" Series - Gold
Sensor:
A classic 50's Style single coil sound with a classy
bell.
