In this unsponsored video, I have installed a Lace Sensor Blue single coil pickup into a Squier Sonic Series Bronco short scale bass. In episode 14, we featured the Lace Sensor Red - it was a big sonic step up from the stock pickup, with bigger lows and low mids, bigger output with less noise and hum. However, the low mids were a bit on the muddy side. The Blue is advertised as being a lower output pickup in comparison the red, and is perhaps less aggressive sounding. Will the midrange open up and give us more clarity? Let's find out!
We will compare the Blue vs the Red with the tone pot at 10%, 50% and 100%. At the end of the track comparison, I will also include clips of the stock pickup for a sonic reference.
The bass was recorded direct through a Line6 Pod Go with the identical settings. No EQ or compression was added in post.
Stock nickel roundwound strings.
*To best appreciate the sonic differences, headphones or quality speakers are recommended.
