10.8mm Electric Guitar Bridge Zinc Alloy Saddles Block Stainless Steel Plate 2 Point Tremolo Bridge Compatible with 6-string Start St Electric Guitar Replacement Parts (Chrome)

If you buy the chrome version of this trem you'll have no quibbles. The black and gold trems have small issues. For some reason they use chrome trem screws with both the black and the gold. Also the black trem has chrome saddle screws. These items all cost the same, so I can't figure out why the black and gold aren't totally black and gold. Other than that, this is a well made tremolo. Everything about it looks top quality. It has two things I really wanted. One was a trem arm tension screw that you can access without taking off the pick guard. The other is that it's a half block tremolo. There's a great finish on the block, too. I' bought the black and chrome trems and will be buying the gold one, soon. I've already bought the trem and saddle screws. I haven't installed one, yet, but I can tell it will be a direct drop. I recommend this tremolo, especially at this price.

Nice looking piece, requires larger mounting holes that older guitars may not have. Tremolo bar is nice and tight with no play.

Worth the $28-$32, however, I have a few complaints about the fitment quality. 1. The stud post machined threading quality is terrible. 2. The tremolo arm is too small for the tremolo arm socket and it will wiggle, and even fall right out. You get what you pay for, and the musiclily 56mm tremolo is only slightly better.

Perfect partscaster bridge

EXCELENTE PRENDA

It appears to be well made but won’t work on my guitar. Parts are no longer made for my old Gibson. I ruined it trying to make it.

Excellent quality 2 point bridge that is a perfect fit for any ST style tremolo pocket guitar body. It is made of great quality metal and perfectly polished. The chamfered edge gives uniform rocking we’re applying tremolo. You need to drill a 3/8 inch hole for the 10mm posts so you can drive them into the wood so they set in firmly. The bride metal is 3mm thick and the overall weight is close to 8oz. Installation will be easy but double and triple checking before drilling. If you are looking to go to a two point tremolo system that is without a doubt a top quality then these bridges by Ovsal is the way to go.

This is my third tremolo bridge from OVSAL and I’ve been happy with it so far in my guitar build. There are a few things you need to know. First, while this bridge is well built and put together, it is not the tone “upgrade” one would expect from a zinc alloy tremolo block. I did a sound comparison between my cheap and thin tremolo block and this one and to tonal difference is very small. You do get a slightly improve low end response with the zinc alloy block but there’s no improvement in the sustain. That’s due to the fact that the strings are not anchored deeper in the block and therefore not transferring the vibration to the larger mass. I also find that the saddles for this bridge is too heavily coated with the glossy finish to allow for proper vibration transfer. In fact, the saddles themselves don’t conduct ground because of thick the finish is. Second, the springs are pretty weak especially if you’re using a heavy strings or planning on using them for direct replacement. Third, while I have a positive view on the tension adjustment for the tremolo arm in my previous two reviews, I’m starting to find it a pain to do. There’s a small hex screw located at the back of the tremolo block that you use to adjust the tension of how stiff or loose the tremolo arm turns in its socket. It is best to adjust the tension before you install the bridge. Otherwise, you would have to dive bomb the tremolo unit while trying to fit the tiny hex wrench to adjust the tension. I’ve find that to not be a pleasant experience but it’s not the hardest thing to do. Overall, I still like this bridge. I plan on trying out their bent saddles on this bridge and see if it would improve the sustain a bit more. More updates soon.

I haven't yet installed it, but it's obvious that this 2 point strat trem bridge is a quality product. Smooth action on the screws, quality adjusters. Nice block. Great price and fast arrival. Thumbs up all around.
