I tried to look this up but couldn't find the exact answer. I just ordered a Sterling by Music Man SUB AX3 and I plan to replace the bridge humbucker with a DiMarzio Tone Zone. Can someone please confirm if it is indeed a F-Spaced pickup??
 
Welcome aboard noise5150, Im somewhat of a sterling guy, im gonna say im 99.9% sure its f spaced, and the neck is standard, i own the ax40( awesome guitar!) and put a tonezone air norton combo in and its f spaced bridge standard neck. Ps you should swap the neck pickup too, there might be a volume imbalance between the tonezone and stock sterling neck.
 
Thanks! I already ordered a Tone Zone and will consider a neck pickup down the road. I will post a pic when I get the guitar. It will make a nice brother to my USA Axis.
