FenderHipshot Tremsetter

Arrived missing the single claws. Had to return for replacement.

I have been using these in every guitar I have owned with a tremolo system for over a decade now. They are a bit difficult to install and dial-in (I recommend taking it to a luthier for installation - not guitar center). Once installed, they will make the action a bit stiffer (especially with free-floating devices), but is only a temporary distraction until you get accustomed to the feel of it.The point of the system is to return the tremolo to 0 degrees, back in tune and it does that flawlessly - every time.I have had these installed in Fender style stationary, Floyd free-floating and Ibanez style systems and it works perfectly in every type. This ends the frustration of detuning when using the bar and also out of tune when string stretching (since it holds the fulcrum point in place.Regardless if your method is mild, focused emphasis or Vai / Van Halen style incessant dive bombing, this system brings the tremolo back to the center in-tune position. No other system works as well.Also, this system will allow both diving and stretching (2-way) operation. It is not just another stupid hard stop / blocking system.

3 weeks after installing it and my Stat has stayed in tune the whole time. Havent broken a string yet so i don't if it still holds in tune with a broken string. All said, i like this and the way it plays. More of a Hard Tail feel. I did not like drilling holes and taking pieces of my precious Fender. If you are not mechanically inclined and love you guitar, get a professional to do it for you. If there was ever a way to improve upon the perfection of an American made Stratocaster, this might be it.

Tremsetter is essential to effectively utilizing "moderate" tremolo arm action on your stratocaster if you wish to maintain intonation while performing without having a locking nut installed. It is also essential to use locking tuner keys ( I prefer locking tuning keys over a locking nut ) as well as nut string slot & bridge saddle string lubrication as well insuring proper neck & string action set up and alignment and of course proper installation of the tremsetter itself.

I'm in the middle on this one.it has a fairly high degree of difficulty to install and set up correctly if you can do that you can probably already setup well enough not to have to have it.not enough reward to justify it for me

Very handy little device. I may actually buy another. Drilling into your guitar is kind of nerve wracking though.....

I have five strat-style guitars and there's a hipshot tremsetter in every one of them! Four out of five have been completely trouble-free and I'll replace the tremsetter in the problem child pretty soon. Installation is tricky, but if you take your time and follow the instructions carefully, you'll probably get great results. The manufacturer has a great installation video on youtube.

Finally my term works like it should and stays in tune. I had a Luthier install this for me who is very familiar with installing them, he set it up properly so it works as expected.

Item received was as described. Installation instructions provided were easy to follow. Will recommend this product.

sert a stabiliser un pont flottant qui équipe certaine guitare tel que Jackson Charvel Fender

I installed this on my Floyd Rose and it works just fine. The instructions are a bit dry but they are detailed and accurate if followed properly.

No more wavering when you bend strings that detune other resounding (open) strings and greatly preserves stable tuning.
