"The best locking vibrato system I have tried"
Paul White, MusicMart (SOS) June 2007
Strat players now can replace their stock “trem” system with a double-locking vibrato system that not only locks the guitar in tune at the nut and bridge, but also installs with absolutely no modification to either the Strat’s neck or body.
The new SuperVee™ patented vibrato system is the first of its kind to be designed exclusively for the Strat. As a result, it offers Strat players – and luthiers - a host of long-sought benefits as compared with other locking “trems”. For example:
• SuperVee™ can be easily and quickly mounted to the Strat simply by “swapping out” the stock trem system – a process that can take just minutes to complete. No special tools or special training are required; no routing of the body or drilling of holes in the neck is necessary.
• While the application of competitive trem systems are limited to a relatively few Strat neck radii, SuperVee™ works across the complete range of standard Strat necks – from 7- 1/4” to 12”.
• Only SuperVee is equipped with patented “Blade” technology which, unlike the typical metal-on-metal pivoting fulcrum design, provides smooth frictionless action, never wears out and always returns to perfect tune.
• SuperVee™ gives Strat players a more complete range of performance-enhancing options to set up the Strat to their particular requirements and “dial in” perfect intonation. Individual height-adjustable saddles, never before seen on a locking style vibrato, allow the guitarist to set the correct string height for the best sound and playability.
Intonation adjustment has never been easier. SuperVee allows the user to simply turn a set of spring loaded screws which are easily accessed below the fine tuners and provide a generous range of adjustment.
In addition, considerable effort has been made to ensure that the SuperVee™ not only functions at a level players have come to expect from a Strat, but also has the same aesthetic appeal as the original equipment. All the components are classic nickel-plated and the unique locking nut is considerably more streamlined and low-profile than any other competitive design.
This model is for all Modern Strats with a Twin Fulcrum bridge and Custom 12 inch fretboard radius.
