barrycreed Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Hi all, I hope this is the right section. Long time no post. Looking around at some modern P bass pickups. Kicking around the Lace Sensor, DiMarzios or Kent Armstrong Hot P bass pickups. Anyone got any experience of the Lace ones? In the demo video, they sound really punchy, but I won't post the video link, as I have to take into account the guitar and amps used. Big old Oranges and big old cabs! They might be way too hot though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnDaBass Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) I have a 90's MIA Fender Jazz Deluxe with Lace Sensor Pups and Kubicki active pre. The Pups were very quiet (noiseless) had a very clean tonal response but had very low gain.The Kubicki pre had a passive mode which demonstrated the need for the active pre power boost. I replaced the Lacs Pups and preamp with DiMarzio Pups and @KiOgonloom, which had V T & 4 position switch offering neck,or bridge solo and both in series or parallel. I'm a fan of DiMarzio Split P Pups, very versatile tonal range with lots of power. Edited July 8, 2022 by JohnDaBass Spelling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
