Am I correct: the Indus bridge pickup is F-spaced/a trembucker size?

I would like to replace it with something a bit more powerful.

Thank you.

Thanks Ben! I took my Indus to a gig as backup/main guitar and found the bridge didn't have enough "Oompf"  or gain (by just a tiny amount) for the 80s metal/rock my band does, on the amp that I have started to use a lot more (marshall 8100 head + 4x12, solidstate, cheap but does the job well!)  I realised I have a Fender humbucker laying around with the three hole mounting, like Vigier use. I may try that. There is also a Duncan Custom TB5, on Ebay Uk that the seller says came from a Vigier! That aside, my Indus is the best guitar I own, and have ever played. The neck is unreal. A guitar playing friend of mine said it was "a revelation" and he is right! I only use Vigier now, and I tell everyone I can to try them. I am a bit of a brand evangelist :) Keep up the good work, guys.

No problem, M. Vigier, thank you for building such good guitars! The same friend of mine wanted to buy my G.V. Metal, because it is so much beter than his 1970s Gibson Les Paul. I said "non!" of course ! I have told him that there are other G.V.s but he still keeps saying he wants mine, every time I see him :)
