Any opinions on Lace Sensor pickups? Typical Strat pickups are too thin for my tastes, but I don't want the rolled-off top-end of a humbucker/P-90, nor the heavy lower mids of humbuckers. String separation/note clarity is important to me. Do the Laces work for this, or are there good alternatives? It'd be for an HSS setup, using basically only the bridge pickup for distortion.

I've heard good things about them, but unfortunately that's all I can offer. Otherwise:

They're absolutely great. I'm putting a Red and Blue in my Strat (along with a Finger Burner) as soon as I'm able, but every model that I've tried sounded fantastic.

I have a Lace Drop'n'Gain in my SG and it is basically a weapon.

I now have my friends guitar. I can't afford one, so he's lending me his, because he doesn't (and can't) play anyway. It sucks, but it's better than no guitar. My fingers also need to get used to steel strings (remember, I play classical guitar for 13 years now). I don't exactly know what to play, I'm just playing around, but it's lots of fun. Mostly I just turn on some Mogwai or Explosions in the Sky and try to follow one track.
But oh god, I don't know much about electric guitars, but those pickups suck so hard. The guitar is an Aria MAC-30 with the stock pickups. I still dream of a Ibanez GRG170DX, but I won't be able to afford that for quite a few months. Actually I really want to try different kinds of guitars, because I've no idea what suits me best. Also I'm not experienced enough to judge anything.
Oh, and I want effects. Is there an easy way to simulate effects? I have a small mixer, so I could route the signal from the guitar through a device after the preamp (yes, I'm currently using the mixer's preamp, because it still sucks less than the ridiculous amp my friend gave me), maybe even something like a computer. But I guess latency would be a massive problem then. Any ideas? Because I have absolutely no money at all.
