Ben pour moi le F spaced c'est pour les guitares équipées d'un Floyd rose non ? En tout cas c'est comme ça que j'ai fait le choix du mien à l'époque ! J'avais pris le Fred F-spaced pour mettre sur ma N2 équipée d'un Floyd ! Je ne me suis pas posé de question... 
En même temps je ne suis pas un spécialiste, je ne voudrais pas te faire faire une boulette ! Mais pour moi, si t'as pas de Floyd, prend le normal.

Citation du site DiMArzio:
"Why are there two different spacings?
A long time ago (in the 20th century, actually) the electric guitar world was divided between Gibson and Fender designs. One of the differences between the two was string spacing. In general, Gibson chose a narrower string spacing at the bridge than Fender, and therefore the polepieces on Gibson humbuckers were closer together than the magnets on Fender pickups. When guitar shops started installing humbuckers in the bridge position of Strats, it was obvious that the strings didn’t line up with the polepieces, and if the E strings were too far outside, the sound could suffer. Our first humbuckers followed the original Gibson spacing, and we call them standard-spaced. When we released our first humbuckers with wider spacing, Floyd Rose bridges were very popular. Floyd string-spacing is the same as Fender spacing, so we naturally called the new pickups F-spaced.
How do I know which spacing to use?
F-spaced pickups measure 2.01" (51 mm) center-to-center from the first polepiece to the sixth. Standard-spaced pickups measure 1.90" (48 mm). Although some players believe that F-spaced pickups are only for the bridge position of tremolo bridge guitars, many guitars with fixed bridges (including late 1990s Gibson Les Pauls and Epiphone LPs) should have F-spaced pickups in the bridge position. Most tremolo equipped guitars that have a nut width of 1-11/16” (43mm) or more should also use an F-spaced pickup in the neck position. If you’re replacing a bridge-position pickup and you're not sure what your string-spacing is, it's usually better to get an F-spaced model. It is not necessary for the strings to pass exactly over the center of the polepieces for best performance, but it is wise to avoid a situation where the E strings are sitting completely outside of the outer polepieces."
Je crois que le mieux est que tu mesures la distance entre les deux cordes extrêmes:
f-spaced>51 mm
standard>48 mm
D'après eux l'espacement floyd est le même que sur les tremolos fender donc.... à ta place je prendrais plutôt le F mais mesure quand même
