Fender American Standard Strat Tremelo Arm, Guitar Accessories, Metallic

Fits my usa strat well. Plug and play replacement. Or should I say turn and play?!

I play an American Standard Strat, manufactured in the year 2000. The guitar is equipped with the two point (two screw) bridge, with the block bridge pieces. According to 3 days of my own research (and zero help from Fender, by the way...), I determined that this was the correct bridge, because Fender also makes an almost identical trem arm for Vintage Strats, which come with the six point (six - screw) older style bridge, with the rolled steel bridge pieces. There is also a Mexican Strat trem arm which also looks very similar, but is too big in diameter to fit the American Standard bridge. Upon receipt of this arm, it fit beautifully. It came with a bright white knob, and a off-white, kind of eggshell color knob, to fit with vintage style pickguards and volume and tone knobs. It is threaded, and so it screws on and off. It is meant to be installed with a trem arm spring, to keep it in place, as sometimes it can be screwed in, and have enough play to make noise, and the trem spring is designed to hold it in place. Not strictly necessary though. TO ENSURE THIS TREMELO ARM WILL FIT, CONFIRM THAT: + You have an AMERICAN standard strat + The bridge should be the STANDARD type, with block bridge pieces, and two screws. (See included picture #1) + The hole for the trem arm should be threaded, as this arm screws in THIS TREMELO ARM WILL NOT FIT: - MEXICAN made strats (threaded for a larger diameter trem arm) - AMERICAN DELUXE strats* - AMERICAN ELITE series strats* - AMERICAN CLASSIC series strats* - ANY STRAT with a 6-Screw (Vintage) bridge. (See included picture #2) *6-screw bridge is installed by default.

I somehow misplaced the 40+ year old whammy bar for my '82 Strat, but this fits perfectly. And the spare plastic tip (comes with one white, one parchment) is a nice throw-in, in case I ever change the pickup housings. Just get it. If it fits the '80s models, I'l sure it will work in the more recent tremolo assemblies.

No fit. Plan on returning. And plus the threads were a little messed up. Hopefully i will soon find the correct fit to my damn Fender. LOL. 4/5 just because it didn't fit ;)

Works perfect.

this is a great genuine fender replacement, but it also works great for bridges of similar style found on a Yamaha Pacifica entry model. also comes with the option of a white or aged tip.

Bought this thinking the size and thread was the same on all strats. This one is skinny, at 4.6 or 4.7mm. Another one I have is 5.1mm, with thread being 5.6mm. Be sure to measure what you need before buying this one. Here is text from another reviewer on another site that might be helpful... "Tremolo arms are made to one of 3 thread standards, 10-32 (the original USA size), 5x0.8mm (metric) and 6x1.0mm (metric). The largest size is 6x1.0 and this arm is not that size, though description said 'large size'...I did find the correct thread size from another supplier later...I recommend the actual thread size be listed to avoid errors...I can't 100% blame them for the issue, many other suppliers also have poor descriptions plus the basic 'standard' design has 3 iterations..."

This is a 5mm thread. I needed 6mm but it was my mistake. Part is as described so I'm giving 5 stars

The termolo arm was exactly as described and works very well, being a genuine Fender part. Very good value overall. The part was delivered promptly and the service was excellent.

Fine!

Perfeito para Fender Stratocaster Player Series (MIM).

Great Fit for My Customshop Strat! Awesome Seller! Came Early as expected.... Cheers -Philip

C'è poco da dire , originale bello e con due puntali , uno bianco e uno aged , ci sono anche gli aftetmarket che costano meno, ma se vuoi rispettare il tuo strumento questo è quello che ci vuole.
