Sensuous body design, progressive pickups, and quality hardwoods in a brilliant-sounding 4-string.

The Lace Helix 4-String Bolt-On Neck Bass is equipped with the revolutionary Lace Aluma-P pickup, designed by Jeff Lace. This Helix bass is endowed with a 34" scale length, maple neck, mahogany body, a single Aluma-P bass pickup, and knobs for volume and tone.

The Aluma-P is a current driven pickup system that embodies patented and patent pending Lace technology. Incorporating 2 separate pickups for the high and low strings without the need for a humbucking traditional setup, the Aluma-P generates high output clarity with huge bottom. The tone and output levels were only available before with a preamp. The Lace Aluma-P not only eliminates the need for a pr-amp, but also has zero noise.

Formally introduced for Earth Day, revolutionary Lace Aluma-P pickups use 95% less copper wire then standard pickups. By reducing the need for copper the Aluma-P saves valuable resources, reduces open pit mining and the very high energy needed to convert copper ore to fine wire.

The all-passive Lace Aluma-P system eliminates the need for a battery powered pre amp. Another source of pollution for the Earth, batteries are laden with highly toxic chemicals and most often find themselves in landfills.

The main exoskeleton of the Alumitone pickup family is recyclable aluminum offering light weight. This Aluminum primary offers faster attack and higher fidelity for tone than copper. The Aluma-P pickup system weighs only 2.56 ounces. The light weight in turn means less weight and cost in fuel to transport—not to mention reducing the weight of your bass.

Lace includes a custom-fitting, custom-shaped, and custom-designed Lace Red Label gig bag with Velcro neck strap that fits your Helix 4-string bass nice and snug. It features heavy-duty zippers, leather zipper handles, leatherette front pad and end cover, Lace Red Label logo on-body section, and the Lace Helix logo along the neck area and shoulder strap. The bag's zippered, easy-access front storage pocket has penholder, a front pocket large enough to fit cables, cellphones, wallets, straps, and your other small accessories. The bag also has a larger pouch perfect for sheet music or set lists.
