Floyd Rose Rail Tail Tremolo System, Wide Nickel

The Floyd Rose Rail Tail Tremolo is a full contact, dive-only tremolo designed to retrofit existing Strat-style 6-point tremolo with no modifications to guitar; a clever design merging the feel and reliability of a hardtail bridge with the flexibility of a tremolo system. Computer designed and precision-machined, the Rail Tail achieves maximum performance and stunning appearance without compromising comfort or feel.  Its unique features allow for adjustability to fit a variety of guitar bodies and for an easy DIY installation. Unlike the original tremolo design that rocks on a bevel located under the screw heads, the Rail Tail tremolo plate rotates around a precision rail that is mounted directly to the guitar body. The plate cradles the entire rail as if they were one unit improving sound quality and tuning stability. This union also creates a greater breakpoint allowing open strings to maintain pitch when bending another, much like a hardtail.For optimum performance, playing experience and reliability, it’s highly recommend that the guitar this unit is being installed on, is equipped with locking tuners and a quality nut.
