Is F-spacing really important?

[marty_the_westie]

A few moths ago I bought an Ibanez with a trem unit. (Not Locking). At the time I also bought new pickups for it. What I didn't realize is that the bridge humbucker should of been f-spaced. But, the thing is, I can't tell of any kind of tone drop off, different volume from different strings, or any issues what so ever. The strings are misaligned, but not really much at all, mostly toward the b and e strings. Should I replace it with an f-spaced?

i wouldnt bother. if its working fine, then id leave it alone. trem spaced pups have only been around for a few years and we got along fine without em. if you do notice a little drop off, raise that pole piece
