When selecting pickup spacing, consider your guitar’s bridge type. Standard spacing (49-50mm) works best for guitars with fixed bridges, like Gibson Les Pauls, SGs, and ES-335s.
F-spacing (52-53mm) is designed for tremolo-equipped guitars, such as Fender Stratocasters, Telecasters with tremolos, and guitars with Floyd Rose systems. Choosing the right spacing ensures proper string alignment and optimal tone.
