Lace Sensor Gold/Silver = X Seymour Duncan Hum Cancelling???

[gunjabeans]

Hey fellow tone junkies,

I enjoy the tone of my Lace Sensor Gold Neck, Silver Middle, but, I want the neck a little Bigger, Fatter, and Brighter. What SD HUM CANCELING pickups are close? The middle I'm not as concerned with but, I love how I switch to the neck and middle possition now, and it has a Robert Cray sort-of strat sound; glassy and clean. I was thinking The stk-s7 (Vintage Hot Stack) Neck, and stk-s4m (Classic Stack) Middle... And then a JB in the bridge that auto splits.

welcome to the forum!

the gold would be closer to the classic stack and the silver might be closer to the vintage hot.

it's hard to imagine a decent hum canceling pickup which is brighter than a Lace Gold...

How about FilterTrons?

Plenty of stacked single coils have more presence. I suspect you are talking about bass/treble balance though, and for that, well, I find most of the Laces both a bit dull and lacking compared to the better SCs, and lacking what I like about a good side by side humbucker as well...

There are some guitarists who pull amazing tones out of them, though.

the gold is just a bright (more treble/low bass/medium midrange) non-vintage sounding strat-style single coil pup. it can't be compared with side by side humbuckers, p90s, filtertrons, etc. if you like modern low-output strat sounds, it's a nice pickup. if you're looking for vintage tone or hot output you should check something different.
