These tremolo arms are specifically
designed around a free-free floating bridge setup. With the two pin pivot tremolo system of the American
Professional Strat® the FRONT edge of your bridge top
plate should be raised approximately 0.030" from the painted
surface of the body, this is about the thickness
of credit card, your bridge should only pivot on the two
pins, not on the body like a vintage Strat® bridge. The back edge of the bridge should be
raised up off the
surface of the body by 1/8". With this setup the plastic tip
end of these tremolo arms will be
placed approximately 2" to 2-1/4" above the pickguard
surface when the arm is in the playing position. Your
actual tremolo arm tip-to-pickguard surface distance may
vary depending on your particular bridge setup. We DO
NOT recommend your bridge to be setup as flush with the
body, your tremolo arms tip-to-pickguard surface
distance would then be greater.
These Professional Strat® tremolo arms are
fabricated in limited production run quantities due to
the extended time it takes to create each tremolo
arm. Left handed versions may take a few extra
days to complete, so please be patient while we work on
your order.
