Lace Pickguard PLUS: This pickguard is outfitted with all the features you need to bring your playing to the next level. It features our revolutionary ultra slim circuitry developed in conjunction with our partners at Rock&Blue, and The Lace Stick-Shift Technology featuring a Freeway (5B5-01) 10 Position Switch. The Freeway functions exactly like a standard 5-way switch, until you click it over to the next channel. Once activated, It opens up 5 additional positions for your Strat that you'll soon not be able to live without. In addition, the integrated circuitry offers multiple capacitor values, that can be adjusted by the user to match their own distinctive taste.
This 5-layer PCB design was modeled after the same technology used in GPS satellites for a demanding role that will last forever in extreme conditions. And it accomplishes all of this with ABSOLUTELY ZERO NOISE and NO BATTERIES! No complicated disassembly, or USB charging required ever. It also uses 85% less solder than a traditional loaded pickguard, therefore lowering its overall environmental impact.
The Lace Pickguard PLUS is a multi-tone, multi-capacitance, multi-selectable system designed for the future of guitar playing with a nod to the past. There's nothing like it on the market. Make the switch today!
