Description
This 52 mm humbucker screw bobbin is designed for F-spaced / wide-spaced humbucker pickups and is intended for the adjustable screw coil.
The 52 mm pole spacing aligns with wider string spacing commonly found on tremolo-equipped guitars, modern bridges, and wide-spaced bridge positions. Proper spacing ensures accurate pole adjustment and consistent string-to-string balance.
Molded in classic cream, this bobbin is suitable for new pickup builds, rewinds, restorations, and modern humbucker assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 52 mm spacing mean?
52 mm spacing (often called F-spaced) matches wider string spacing typically found on tremolo-equipped guitars and modern wide bridges.
Is this the screw bobbin or the slug bobbin?
This is the screw bobbin (adjustable coil), used with adjustable pole screws.
What should this be paired with?
Pair it with a 52 mm slug bobbin so both coils match spacing and align correctly.
Can I mix 52 mm with 50 mm or 49.2 mm bobbins?
No. Both bobbins should match spacing to ensure proper pole alignment and balanced response.
Is this suitable for bridge-position humbuckers?
Yes. 52 mm spacing is commonly used in bridge-position F-spaced humbuckers where string spacing is wider.
