Very well designed trem
FenderPete 06.09.2020
I was looking to upgrade my less than steller 2-point stock Fender tremolo on my MIM strat. The machining quality, fit and finish and overall quality is top notch. I use my tremolo/vibrato very often, and getting it dialed in to float the way I like it was a breeze.

Pros:
- improved sustain
- vintage saddles are very well machined and finished
- everything lines up and is a fool-proof drop in
- intonation and saddle height adjustment is a breeze
- love the pop-in/screw in tremolo arm with set screw you dial in that feel.
- nice choice of black/white knobs.
- all hardware included and packaged nicely.
- made in Germany craftsmanship and quality,

Cons:
- a tad on the expensive side, but it is well worth the money
- the springs are a bit on the soft side, so I ended up using 4. But will try putting in the stock fender ones to see how those feel (I use 10-48 GHS strings).
- It's about 1 cm narrower than a stock fender tremolo system, but really that is not a con and the tremolo cavity is not seem if you have bridge decked. It's also not and issue if you use a floating bridge.

Fantastic trem
Balch 09.01.2021
I got this tremolo as a replacement to put on my American Standard Strat from 1998. The block and saddles make such a huge difference to the tone; it's got a lot more high end and brings out more sustain. It was a straight drop on from the old tremolo. It also helps to have a trem arm that is adjustable, no more loose swinging arm! Some advice if someone is going to be doing the same; use the tremolo mounting screws that came with your guitar as they fit a lot better. You only need to use the mounting screws that come with the tremolo if you're putting them on a new build on guitar.

Overall, I very much recommend this upgrade!

Super Tremolo
Norbert412 08.02.2021
Das hätte ich nicht erwartet meine Fender Strat aus den USA
2008 wurde durch den Block und die Reiter im Sound absolut
Klar und so sauber im Klang,das man beim Spielen alles
aber auch alles sauber spielen sollte sonst ist es matsch.
Ob es am Schleiß des Fender Tremolo lag kann ich nicht
sagen sie hat ja auch schon 12 Jahre auf dem Puckel.
Absolute Kaufempfehlung.
Werde meine Anderen Fender nach und nach umrüsten.
