Pickup spacing for prs with trem?

DefaultMDefaultM Frets: 7346
I have a few PRS CE guitars with trems.
I'm sure that I read a bit ago that they don't take an F spaced pickup and they need regular spaced, but now that I've put one in it seems out of alignment.

Does anyone know what the best option is?

  • Either works and it probably makes no difference to sound

    Agree it doesn't make a difference to the sound. I had some paf pros in an Ibanez where the high e pole piece was nowhere near the string and it sounded fine. Just looks a bit odd.

    I always fit trem spaced pickups in a PRS.   I know it makes no difference to the sound but it was a surprise when I discovered they fit standard spacing in the factory - once you notice it they look wrong imo.
