    Lace Pickups release New Mandolin pickup

     

    August 3rd, 2015

    Cypress, California; Lace Music Products is proud to present its latest pickup offering, the Mando-Lace, a passive, easy-to-install pickup for mandolins.

    Using their experience with other passive Lace Sensors for rising interest in acoustic and Americana instruments, Lace turned to the Mandolin, an instrument with few options when it comes to pickups and amplification. This new pickup features patented Lace technology to bring out the most authentic reproduction of the strings through a passive magnetic pickup. Competitor Mandolin pickups are, for the most part, active designs and are difficult to install. Feedback and unnatural tones are also a common problems associated with the current types of pickups available today for Mandolin players.

    The so-named Mando-Lace pickup, needs no batteries or other equipment for installation. In fact, the installation is simple, takes only minutes, and has the ability to be removed just as fast. A holding plate is sandwiched between the saddle and the bridge, and placement of the actual pickup is just above the bridge. The patented Lace design of “compression magnetics” allows very accurate string to string output with excellent balance. Cork pads on the pickup then make a positive contact with the surface of the mandolin for ultra-secure placement without marring the finish with pressure or adhesive. A heavy duty audio cable with a strap pin loop secures the cable, while a high quality female jack is standard.

    The design is simple, pure and elegant without degrading the playability of the mandolin. Output level is excellent and has a very high feedback threshold. Adding to the bullet proof design is the fact that it can be used with effects such as reverb or chorus.

    The Suggested retail is $149.99, Street Price is $ 99.99

    Lace Pickups has been building pickups for all types of guitars and instruments since 1979.
