Lace Sensor Holy Grail, Lace Sensor Hot Gold, Lace Alumitone Deathbucker Pickups Demo: A Noiseless C
Loading...
Uploaded by gearwire on Apr 2, 2011
The fine folks at Lace Sensor Corp. sent us a Lace Huntington Guitar loaded with a veritable Whitman's sampler of premium pickups: a Lace Sensor Holy Grail in the neck, a Lace Sensor Hot Gold in the middle position, and a Lace Alumitone Deathbucker in the bridge. All three are sound-checked in this video demo, and the two "Sensor" pickups are compared to our house Strat's standard-issue Tex-Mex single coils. You'll be able to compare self-noise and determine if the Laces' tone's are sacrificed in the name of zero-hum (we don't think so).
A little technical background not covered in the video: instead of relying on dummy coils like other noiseless single-coils, Lace Sensor pickups utilize something called Radiant Field Barriers, which they describe as "metal slides which frame the inner core of the Sensors and. . . shield the Sensor from outside noise and 60-cycle hum. . . [and] produce a broader, yet more concentrated umbrella of a sensing field than that of standard magnetic pickups." Watch the video to hear what this Greek translates into sonically.

MIM strat with lace sensor hot gold pickupsby thebandseabright3,496 views
@tgv1975 Yeah.. this is really sad and hard to witness or hear. I have early Lace pickups in an old (early 70s) Japanese Squier that sing. Like you said, the sound on here is dead. Thanks man!

@doinkusamongus When he first played the MIM Strat in this video I was "Man, this sounds so much better, so much more organic than the Lace." In this video the Lace PUs sound dead.

The Highway One Fender pickups were miles better sounding than that Lace guitar. Have you ever played this back to review it yourself? You should. You just unsold the Lace pickups to me. I've heard them sound much better but not in this video or on a Huntington guitar. Listen to this video for yourself.

This is actually a pretty good demo of the pickups, regardless of whether or not the guitar is in tune. I found it helpful!

OH my god get a real amp. The distortion on that thing is laughable. Talk about zero clarity! WTF is it running the tubes @ 3 volts or something? HAHAHA =))

It's encouraging that the manufacturer of that guitar is employing the blind in their headstock design department.
