NEED TO KNOW- Floyd R.I.P.....the ultimate whammy bar has arrived!!!!

 WILKINSON PROTOTYPE BRIDGE 

I have always been impressed with the the Wilkinson
design Gotoh 510 bridge

It is exceptional but not perfect. The Floyd reigned supreme for tuning reliability.
Unlike a Floyd there isn't a gargantuan mass of hardware to deal with and get in your way.
No matter what ...I fully expect the Metal player will never to leave it.   :-)

BUT
...for the rest of us the new Wilkinson is 'IT'.
It is no more intrusive then a stock Strat bridge!

It is a simple idea. Use a good set of locking tuners.
Make sure your nut is not causing you a problem
because it is snagging the strings.

Then install the new Wilkinson locking bridge.


What's Not to like ???

Well only one thing ...it does not have a model number or a price ???
It has been released though. I can only guess that ol' Trev is waiting for initial feedback.
He also needs to gets production beeped up enough to look after the OEM guitar makers.
Those like Suhr do not want you NOT ordering a guitar because they do not have any.
