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.

Which SR bass should you buy?
My first "high end"(major brand) bass was an Ibanez SR506 six-string bass. The mahogany wood was a little soft and thus suffered some dings,but now they are made out of Bubinga if I recall so that shouldn't be an issue anymore. The neck was very comfortable, despite having to get used to a six as opposed to a four string. The string spacing was close enough for fast fingerstyle but still spaced enough for effective slapping. But the selling point is the Bartolini pickups, they can produce pretty much any sound you would need. I highly recommend them.
