SD neck in a strat with bridge JB

[PRoga]

Hello everyone,

I want to replace my neck single coil with a noiseless single coil.
I have a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge and I was looking for a stk model.
But I can’t understand the pole spacing.
ex. The stk-s4n is 52mm or 50? And the stk-s6?
the fury neck?

Thank you very much for the help.

The STK series are all 52.578 mm's. And welcome to the forum.

Thank you very much for the reply.
I have a vintage bridge with 6 screw.
Could I replace my neck single with an stk-s6 without any problem in pole string alignment?

the stks6 should work fine in the neck even if the poles dont perfectly line up

First, decide what is more important: volume balance with the JB, or classic single coil tone. The higher the output of the pickup, the less classic Strat sound you will get. The lower the output, the more classic Strat sound, but less of a chance it balances with the JB.

with 500k pots the stks6 sounds pretty good in the neck

Yeah, it might just be fine, especially if used with a lot of gain.
