Wow they include everything this package - even extra bridge height screws! Full steel block-yes.One thing I wish they would do is have the trem arm angled as in original Strat so one could leave it on in the case as Leo intended. But that is a minor thing compared to all the good that is here.

These Wilkinson bridges used to be my go-to for strat-style guitars. This latest one I ordered works, but the tremolo block is slightly crooked, and the tremolo arm is a little wobbly, despite adjusting the grub screw.I think next time I'll try a different make...Edit: after using this bridge for awhile, the block cracked around the tremolo arm, rendering the tremolo useless. Overall rating reduced.

元はスチールブロックのアメリカンビンテージが付いていましたが90gほど軽くなりました。音も軽くなった気がしますが個人的には好みの方向に変わったので良かったです。半音下げのフローティングでは付属のスプリングを3本張っても固く、アームアップか好みの位置ではハンガーから外れましたので元のスプリングを使って滑らかに作動させています。アームは裏のネジを締め込まないとブロックの中の部品でガタ付きが出ますのでブラブラ派の人にはイマイチかもしれません。弦交換の後に気づきましたがサドルはフェンダーの方が見た目は良いものの弦通しの位置の問題でネジが弦に当たりそのままで流用不可です。セッティングにもよりますがチューニングはアームを無茶苦茶に扱っても割と安定しています。アームの径はローレット部分で5mmありますのでキャップの径は5.2mmが必要になると思います。純正のナロータイプは手に入りにくいですし、手頃な価格で互換品が見つかって良かったです。弾き易さは評判通り良くなりました。

I’m a custom guitar builder and am always looking for new hardware at a competitive price.

Thought this was higher quality but this seems cheap and is made in a Korea. The trem block is zinc possibly not steel but it is heavier weight. The claw seems very cheap. Buy at own risk. Doing my first build, I will install and hope for the best but feel I may be upgrading eventually.

The Wilkinson 5+1 Hole Tremolo Bridge has long been my goto tremolo for all of my Strats. Replacement or new build with no screw holes this thing rocks. There are 5 slightly widen holes and 1 perfectly sized round hole to set the initial alignment of bridge in reference to string location from the nut, along the neck, to the bridge. I have yet to find a USA or Foreign Strat it did not work on. It also has a push-in trem arm that fine tunes the tension with a set screw. With all the stripped screw-in arms or loose wobbly action I’m shocked Fender hasn’t incorporated one like Wilkinson unless copyright issues. TIP: I modified 2 Fender trems with some water line plastic tubing from Ace hardware (you must cut a little slit out of it so it will adjust) and even used a height adjustment allen screw from an old bridge as the set screw. The arms used were 6mm so I had to drill the trem hole out a bit. Yeah, sounds complicated but can be easily done in 30 minutes because you don’t have to remove the bridge. The Wilkinson 5+1 also comes with a steel block and vintage stamped engraved hardware, and looks great. It dots all the i’s and crosses the t’s and is a 5 star in my book.

Great value for the price. Dropped right into my project cleanly with minimal issues. High quality parts, nice heavy trem block. Would buy again.

Great product, arrived before expected, installed on Yamaha Pacifica 112v, fits perfectly only had to redrill 1 screw, very hay with the purchase.
