Lace Sensor Silver Single Coil Strat Pickup, Black, 21081-02

Tone / Character:

• The Silver Sensor delivers a “fat 70’s single-coil sound — richer midrange, a bit more output than vintage single coils while retaining clarity. 

• It’s especially suited for classic rock, blues, vintage rock & pop styles.

• Some describe its sound as close to Richie Blackmore’s tone during his Deep Purple era — strong mids, a thick single coil voice. 
  
  

Construction & Features:

• Radiant Field Barrier system: Metallic barriers surround the coil and magnets to reduce 60-cycle hum (i.e. mains hum) without resorting to true humbucking. 

• Lace Micro Combs®: Instead of traditional bobbin sides, these micro combs help in balancing string response and extending harmonic content. 

• Generates 36 separate magnetic “sensing” fields along the string contact area, improving sensitivity, harmonic richness, and dynamic response. 
  
  

Electrical / Physical Specs:

• DC Resistance: ~ 7.1 kΩ

• Peak Frequency: About 3000 Hz 

• Inductance: ~ 3.38 Henries 

• Intended primarily for middle or neck positions, though users sometimes use it in bridge for more output or to balance volumes.
  
  

Physical Dimensions & Fit:

• Standard single-coil size / Strat-style format. 

• When measuring clearance (string to pickup height), optimum height is about .170" (bottom of string to top of pickup surface) for best tone and output.
