Never goes out of tune, the saddles are very solid and they keep the intonation forever. It's the kind of tremolo that can take any kind of abuse but stays in tune forever. Looks superb in both finishes, and it really gives a new look on my strat. Definitely worth the price.

Just what was wanted and expected. Gold finish to match the other hardware in my Strat "Partscaster" project. The only negative is the bridge saddle screws are black and not gold plated, so are the springs. The saddles are stamped "Fender" as expected and wanted. I'll have to source some Gold plated springs and screws elsewhere. Not worth losing a star over.

Beautiful (when it is new)

Just be careful with the Fender model you have. (you might have to redrill the guitar to install this piece). It is gold. After 6 months, the bright simply disappears.
One year later and it is already rusty (I don't live close to the sea)

Ist das Geld nicht wert.

Bei der ersten Bestellung:
Dieses Teil ist optisch ein hingucker. Funktion auch OK.
Gewinde für den Tremolohebel ist nicht gut ,er wackelt ein bisschen. Allerdings löste sich schon nach ca. 6 Monaten die Beschichtung. An der Kontaktstelle, Tremolo - Hand, obwohl meine Spielzeit sich wöchentlich auf nur 3 Stunden belief. Laut Aussage von Fender läge das an meinem aggressiven Schweiß. tauschten es aber trotzdem aus. Die Beschichtung des dann neu Gelieferten Tremolos löste sich dann allerdings schon nach 3 Monaten. Mein Schweiß scheint mit der Zeit immer Aggressiver zu werden. Eigenartig ist das meine 5 Jahre alte Burns mit beschichtetem Goldoutfit bei weitem nicht so aussieht, wie dieses Tremolo nach 3 Monaten.

Abschliessend mein Fazit: Wer nicht nur wert auf Klang sondern auch auf Optik legt, sollte nach einer gleichwertigen alternative ausschau halten.
