Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between SH and F-spacing?
SH-spaced humbuckers have 49mm pole spacing (1-15/16" E to E), while F-spaced (Trembucker) pickups have 52.6mm maximum string spacing. The spacing refers to how far apart the pickup poles are and must match your specific pickup model for proper fitment and tone.
Will either cover affect my pickup's tone?
Both covers use non-magnetic, non-ferrous construction specifically designed to preserve your pickup's original tone and output. Neither will color or dampen your signal, making them purely aesthetic upgrades.
How do I know which spacing I have?
Measure the distance between your pickup's pole pieces from the high E to the low E string. Standard humbuckers measure 49mm (1-15/16"), while F-spaced trembuckers measure 52.6mm. Check your guitar's documentation or measure before ordering.
Can I use the SH cover on a Trembucker or vice versa?
No—each cover is engineered specifically for its spacing configuration. Using the wrong cover will result in poor fitment, gaps, and misalignment with your pickup's magnetic poles, affecting both appearance and performance.
