Musiclily Pro 52.5mm 2-Point Guitar Tremolo Bridge with Full Block Steel Saddles for Modern American Strat Electric Guitar, Chrome

I'm a huge fan of musiclily parts and this one did not disappoint!I love the brightness and resonance of saddles and base. The block is thick but fit perfectly inside my Micheal Kelly guitar. String spacing is always a tossup with these things put this one was perfect and alignment is great! The finish is perfect for the color theme I was going for and seems like it will hold up for a long time!The dowels that are included are quite large! I needed to well out my holes quite a bit to begin to beat these guys in so, be prepared to modify your instrument just in case. Once I got the dowels seated though, it was all cake from there. Very nicely machined materials.Holds tune great as well! Would absolutely recommend to anyone!

This is a quality piece! Looks like it could have cost twice as much.This was my first time installing a 2 point bridge in a new body. My only caution for potential buyers is that it does not come with detailed installation instructions or a drilling template. That may be true of all the other brands too. Just know that the install takes some skills and experience, and probably a drill press, to get the studs located correctly and the holes drilled cleanly and accurately. You only get one chance. Be prepared to measure 10 times and drill once! This doesn't apply to a retrofit where you already have studs or at least stud holes.The supplied springs seem pretty stiff. I only used two and still had to back the claw screws out pretty far.The little bag of extra screws was a nice bonus, especially the saddle height screws. Once you get the guitar set up you can install the screws that protrude least above the saddles.Update: Just installed another one of these on a custom Ibanez-ish guitar. The customer is a veteran musician and a dear friend with a basically unlimited budget. I stressed over lots of details on this build, but never worried about using this bridge.

The Player Strat had wood screws for the mounting posts. This Tremelo has inserts you press into the body. The mounting posts then screw into the inserts so you have machine screw threads for adjustment. This Tremelo has modern steel saddles instead of bent steel saddles and it has a push-in tremelo arm with a set screw to tighten it.

Great unit as everyone says... bang for the buck Gotoh 510ft imposter... but the set screw has no rubber tip so it metal on metal with the trem arm. Scratched and dug into it on the first adjustment. This will not last, feels awful and looks like hot ass as the scratching on the arm itself can become so dug-up that the bar wont go into the slot... not even a week of playingSorry but looks great feels nice works well... that arm lock? Kills it

UPDATE: There is a hex screw that you can tighten to hold the tremolo arm in (see images). You can also use it to adjust how loose or tight the arm moves. While this is a good feature, I would still prefer it to be a snap-in tremolo arm and the hex screw is not the fastest option to attach the arm. Imagine if you lose the hex wrench right before you go on stage.ORIGINAL REVIEW:The bridge in general is great. The chrome on black looks very nice and sleek on my guitar and it seem to have brighten up my tone and improved sustain a bit. I got it to replace the one on my Squier Affinity Jazzmaster. After confirming all of the measurements, replacing was super easy with no modification needed. The steel block feels very sturdy and solid though it added some weight to my guitar. I do notice some improvement in tone and sustain so a bit of weight increase wasn’t too big of a deal.My only complaint about this is that it seems like they included the wrong tremolo arm with the bridge. The included arm was not threaded which I was excited at first because I prefer it over threaded ones. When I place it in the bridge, it didn’t snap in like I was expecting it to. Instead it was dangling there and if you move the guitar a certain way, the tremolo arm just fell right off. Fortunately the threaded tremolo arm that was on my old bridge seem to fit quite snug in the bridge (which is ideal since I didn’t want the arm to be swinging all over the place). This leads me to believe that the bridge has threaded insert for the tremolo arm and the manufacturer simply included the wrong type in the package. While I was disappointed that I don’t have a black tremolo arm to complete the look, at least my old one (seen in pictures) still fits.

This is a great bridge, two point Fulcrum that will not fall apart like most do! This is a floating bridge and the trem bar can be customized to a trem that won’t strip out. It can be threaded to fit a nut on the lower end. Most cheap made bridges are built with a soft metal and strip on the inside of bridge. This unit uses nothing on the lower end and can be modified with a nut and a nylon washer that will not let the nut tighten too tight. Works great for me for continued use of trem! Works and feels like a Floyd Rose, but without locking Nut and fine tuners! That’s why they call it a floating bridge! Geno

Muy bueno

I had two major issues. First, the time delivered was visibly used. The block and arm was scratched up. Second, the design of the tremolo arm is NOT the Fender style pop in. That uses a combination of set screws, a plastic collar, and a spring. This tremolo arm holding mechanism is literally just a screw that you tighten. The result is that the screw digs in and creates a score as you use it which makes the arm loose. So you tighten it more which only makes the score deeper and all the while you're ruining the whammy bar. This is especially frustrating as the whole reason I purchased this bridge was to get away from the wobbly trem arm I had with a screw in style.The especially frustrating part is other than the crappy trem arm design this is a great bridge! The block is nice and chunky. The saddles are easy to adjust and intonate. I feel like it adds sustain and makes everything more substantial. If only they did something more sensible with the trem arm! If you deck your trem and don't use vibrato, get this. Otherwise stay away.
