The 5050-U tremolo features numerous "hidden" tweaks that make it a great sounding "twang master". At the same time, the classic vintage design is preserved.
The "Advanced String Guide" with its cove prevents in connection with the newly developed saddles detuning in the best way. The base plate and mounting screws have the same hardness, so that material wear in continuous operation could be extremely minimized.
The tremolo arm is comfortably adjustable and the elaborately turned torpedo knob feels perfect. Likewise, tremolo springs have been developed to provide buttery smooth and silent "tremoloing". In conjunction with a good bone saddle and clamping mechanisms, it acts almost without detuning.
The look is also right. Vintage correct design with chromed base plate in "mirror-gloss quality" and nickel-plated slides! On request also aged in "Mint Condition".
