Huh? I have Lace Golds in one of my Strats - bought and installed them many years ago. No onboard power required - they install just as you would a regular single-coil pickup.I recalled that Fender once made noiseless pickups, so I did a little research...turns out the Lace Sensor was the first attempt at noiseless. The Lace Sensor runs off of battery onboard guitar power, and introduction of a power source into a guitar would mean I'd have active pickups. Not the most desirable option.
Of the "noiseless" pickup options that I have (which include two different generations of the Fender Noiseless, a variety of SD dual coils, and DiMarzio HS-3 pickups), they are closest in sound to a Strat single coil IMHO. YMMV and all that.
