Lace Sensor Purple Pickup – White Cover – Made January 2018 – Hot Overwound Single Coil / P-90 Style Voice – Free Shipping
For sale is a Lace Sensor Purple single-coil pickup with white cover, made in January 2018. This appears to be a modern Lace-made pickup rather than an earlier Fender/Lace 1980s–1990s version.
The Purple Sensor is one of the hotter Lace Sensor models and is designed for players who want more output and midrange than a traditional Strat-style pickup while retaining the low-noise advantages of the Lace Sensor design. Lace describes the Purple as a hot overwound single-coil tone, voiced between the Burgundy and Blue Sensor, designed for the bridge position or for a P-90-type tone in the neck. Lace lists the Purple Sensor at approximately 10.5K ohms.

How the Purple Compares to Other Lace Sensors
Gold Lace Sensor: Approx. 5.8K ohms — the most vintage Strat-like Lace Sensor, with clear, bell-like single-coil tone.
Silver Lace Sensor: Approx. 7.1K ohms — slightly hotter and fuller than Gold, with more midrange and a stronger 1970s-style single-coil voice.
Purple Lace Sensor: Approx. 10.5K ohms — hotter and thicker than Gold or Silver, voiced between Burgundy and Blue. Great for bridge use or for a P-90-style tone in the neck.
Blue Lace Sensor: Approx. 12.8K ohms — warmer and thicker, with a more humbucker-inspired voice.
Red Lace Sensor: Approx. 14.5K ohms — the hottest of the classic Lace Sensor family, with a fat, punchy bridge tone and higher-output response.
Why Buy This Pickup?
This is a strong choice for someone who wants to mod a Strat-style guitar without going fully humbucker. The Purple sits in a useful middle ground: more power and girth than a Gold or Silver, but not as aggressive as a Red. It can add punch to the bridge position, thicken up a thinner Strat, or create a warmer P-90-style neck tone while keeping the low-noise performance Lace Sensors are known for.
This would also be a useful replacement for a damaged or missing Purple Sensor, or as part of a custom Lace Sensor set paired with Gold, Silver, Emerald, Blue, or Red models.
