Hi forum!
I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on a new Strat build and I want to make sure I'm not about to make a stupid mistake. I know that there are different Strat bridge string spacings and I know what I want in that respect but it seems like that spacing should affect the desirable pole spacing particularly on the bridge pickup. I've never really seen anyone talking about this though.
Are all Strat pickups 'compatible' with both string spacings? Specifically, I'm planning to use Bill Lawrence Microcoils and the Callaham American Standard hardtail bridge, with 52 mm spacing.
Thanks!
