Editorial Review Lace Tone Bars for steel guitar is the cleanest, truest, most hi-fidelity pickup you can buy for your 8, 10 or 12 string pedal steel guitars. Providing extended bandwidth to faithfully reproduce your instruments natural tone, it also has the guts to hold up under gain and attack! Another Lace Tone bar advantage is that they're ultra-light, taking a few pounds off your instrument. Tone bars are very transparent. It is excellent for any playing situation from live to direct-to-board recording. They LOVE effects and truly extend the tonal color of your instrument. You'll remember why you started playing pedal steel guitar!
