NEED HELP...Trembucker Spacing

[rossipsu1]

I ordered an SH-11 custom / custom for my bridge position pup on my strat clone a few days ago. The strat has a normal strat trem bridge, and the stock Duncan Designed humbucker in it is installed at about a 20 degree angle compared to my single coil pups.

Should I have order a TB-11 for this ?? Will the SH-11 work ??

I'm starting to get that sinking feeling I made a wrong decision here...

Any help would be appreciated...

if i am understanding you correctly it has a hummer that is tilted?
well if that s the case you did the right thing by ordering a standard spaced pup
old eddie van heflin used to use his normal spaced pups on a slant

The bridge pickup is slanted like an American Strat, except it's a humbucker. It has a vintage trem bridge...

Measure the distancee from e to e. If its under 2 inches (51 mm), standars spaced will line up better. If it´s 2" or more, a TB will

It's a shade under 2" from E to E on a vertical measure, but whats throwing me off is the slant of the pickup. Obviously, any degree of a slant will INCREASE the spaced distance between poles.

I guess I should measure on the slant...
