Love them! Tiny jewelry
I really love these string guides, they are the best parts on my custom built guitar!
I did put them on a bit crooked, but they still look good! To avoid this make sure you have a stable working surface before you get working and maybe try putting them on without the strings (mark first and then take the strings off). Online tutorials may encourage you to install them with the strings on - which may be more difficult if you are doing it for the first time.
Enjoy your guitar jewelry!

Easy upgrade for your guitar!
Theses are genuine Fender parts at a nice price, and the're a great (& simple) upgrade for your guitar - What's not to like?
I fitted two of these to my Mex. Stratocaster. It was already fitted with a butterfly-type string tree, but I wanted a more professional look.
I used the fixing hole frfom the existing string tree as my starting point. These trees have an anti-rotation nib which needs to be located in a small diameter hole. After aligning the tree to the loosened strings, I partly screwed the string tree down which allowed the nib to mark its own position. If you don't have a drill small enough for the job, or are unsure about drilling into the headstock, use a Bradawl to make a small hole by hand - Bradawl is £1.99 from Screwfix.
Finally screw the tree down to the headstock, and admire your 'Am. Standard' string tree arrangement!

String Guide
Standard fender string guide bought to replace the stock silver ones. Matches the other hold hardware I've bought from Fender. Looks very nice.
