Width of Covered DiMarzio F-spaced and/or Suhr 53mm pickup?

[Masta' C]

Does anyone happen to have a factory covered F-spaced DiMarzio and/or 53mm Suhr pickup on hand that they could measure for me?

I'm interested in the overall width of the pickup (length-wise) with the factory cover installed. I know a covered Trembucker from Duncan is a bit too wide for the application I have in mind due to the elongated bobbins that SD uses. But I don't have any DiMarzios or Suhr pickups on hand with wider spacing and factory covers to compare.

Measurement in millimeters (mm) preferred

Thanks!

Anyone?

Don't have specs in millimeters, but I believe an F-spaced DiMarzio is actually a tiny bit wider than a Duncan Trembucker.
I could be wrong - perhaps it's just that their pole spacing is a bit wider.

Actually, a Seymour Duncan "Trembucker" is wider both in bobbin-length and pole piece spacing than an "F-spaced" DiMarzio!

• Trembucker bobbin length (mm): 70
• F-spaced bobbin length (mm): 66

• Trembucker pole spacing (mm): 52.6
• F-spaced pole spacing (mm): 51

I was just curious about finished dimensions with a cover installed. I already know a covered Trembucker won't fit my application because it is about 2mm longer than I have room for with the cover on, but I was curious how much shorter DiMarzio F-spaced and/or Suhr 53mm pickups are with their factory cover on. I have a lot of pickups, but I don't have any covered versions on hand to compare at the moment.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say it is probably about 3-4mm shorter than a covered trembucker...
I can't think of any reason why the cover would extend beyond the bobbins more than a Duncan cover?

[Masta' C]

You're likely right. I'll chance it...thanks!

F spaced dimarzios are NOT ANY WIDER THAN NORMAL SPACED. They do f spacing smart by spreading the pole pieces out in a traditional length bobbin. No issues fitting one in any humbucker ring or route, unlike Trembuckers, 52 or 53mm pickups, etc.
