F-spaced or non f-spaced.

Hi chaps and chapess'

I need a definate answer to this.

I'm looking to install a dimarzio PAF pro into my jag-stang. However I've previously installed a TOM bridge, so with this in mind what do I need ?? f spaced or non f spaced ? The pickup is mounted at an angle as I'm sure you're aware, this makes any difference ?

I think I knew the answer a long time ago but have now forgotton. It's been a while.

cheers

"The Tune-o-matics require a straight humbucker route in order to acheive 100% accurate string and pickup polepeice alignment. This means replacing the stock pickguard, routing the body slightly and only using SH (standard spaced humbuckers/Gibson spaced humbuckers)."

i don't think it matters all too much about perfect alignment. the slanted route makes a mockery of it anyway. so i think you could probably go with either...
