Is there any difference between Fender Lace Sensors and regular Lace Sensors?

[burton4snow]

I am particularly interested in the Red and Blue Lace Sensors for a Mustang upgrade. I am finding good prices on E-bay for Fender Lace Sensors like 48 and 38 dollars and at GC they are like 60+, but the are just Lace Sensors not Fender Lace Sensors. Is there any big difference?

It was probably a marketing agreement between Don Lace and Fender to put both names on the pickups when Fender was using them extensively.

They are essentially the same pickups.

I used them in a strat for several years until I switched to Kinmans.

whats the best pots for them 250k or 500k?

I use 500. The fender ones are the same. I also wouldn't use blue and red. Maybe blue and reverse silver. You could get the Blue-Red-Silver pack to see what works best and sell the one that doesn't. I use Purple and Reverse Silver.

Why that combination?

If there is a Mustang in the video it's using the Lace Silver and most of the time I'm using the neck pickup or both in series.
