Less noise, more harmonics, more sustain.
The Lace Sensor Emerald is a single coil guitar pickup that delivers crisp top end and bell-like tone
without noise. Built by Lace since 1985, the Sensor pickup was used exclusively by Fender until 1996. These Lace pickups have
the same specifications with the same great tone. Emerald Lace Sensor pickups have that Texas-inspired tone without the noise
associated with single coils. The Sensor Emerald pickup is everything you want to play with the snap and bite of great southern
rock sound.
The Lace Sensor Emerald guitar pickup has a unique radiant Field Barrier system that surrounds both the coil and magnets,
reducing annoying 60-cycle hum. Patented Lace Micro Combs replace traditional bobbins, yielding a wider tonal range and better
string balance than traditional guitar pickups.
Unlike ordinary pickups, the Lace Emerald generates 36 separate magnetic
"sensing" fields that, in the areas where they contact the string, "read" the strings' vibration. (Regular pickups only generate
anywhere from 4 to 12 fields).
The Lace Sensor Emerald also has Radiant Field Barriers: metal slides that frame the
inner core of the Sensors and perform two functions. The first is to shield the Sensor from the outside noise and 60-cycle
hum. The second is to produce broader, yet more concentrated, umbrellas of sensing field than standard magnetic pickups.
Less
Noise, More Harmonics
As compared to standard pickups, it reads 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 it operates so efficiently, Lace Sensors can utilize much lower energy magnets than ordinary guitar 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, reducing sustain and actually changing the pitch. But in the Lace Sensor Emerald,
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.
