Wilkinson WVS50IIK 52.5mm (2-1/16 inch) 2-Point Tremolo Bridge with Stainless Steel Saddles for USA/Mexico/Japan/Korea Strat Electric Guitar, Black

This bridge is amazing, Hands down the most tuning stable non-locking bridge on the market. Highly customizable, unique design and amazing fit and finish. Action is smooth and it comes will all the extra hardware needed to adjust everything to your liking. Please note: I had to slightly modify mine so it would fit the post spacing of my Stratocaster but only because I didn’t want to fill any holes and redrill.

well made. Take your time setting intonation. You can get to 1 cent or better and lock it down. Comes with extra set screws of different lengths for adjusting string height without having excess screw sticking out. No sharp edges sticking up and leaves a clean appearing bridge. Somebody was thinking! You'll need a set of drill bits and a drill on a Squire strat. Start small and step them up gradually so you don't chip finish. 3/8th bit IS big enough. Just under 10mm. Insert chamferred end first and drive in with a brass drift or plastic face hammer. Take your time.

The only thing I disliked about this bridge is the string height and intonation is a bit fiddly with the extra lock screw. Otherwise I love it, the adjustable trem are tension is a terrific feature. It returns to pitch as it should. The pivot cam it designed in such a way that the string ht doesn't raise or lower when using the lever. A great bridge all around except for the fiddly bit I already mentioned. And it's not a Fender product, I got three ridiculously poorly machine Fender bridges and was forced to go elsewhere to get a good bridge. Bravo Wilkinson.

This tremolo works very well and returns to zero point, even after hard use. Guitar star in tune even after deep dives. However, there are some tricks to make it work: 1. Strings must be locked at the hand side, somehow. Period. 2. Don’t make turns on strings. 3. Keep the tremolo as flat as possible.

I was able to return it no problem but buyer beware. The product I received instilled no confidence. I ordered the black and metal color one and the black ‘paint’ appeared to be some kind of wrap because it had wrinkles and a seam at the bottom. Had some kind of casting burs near the knife edge that looked awkward. The knife edges were all chewed up on one side as if badly filed with the wrong tool or something and the other had not been shaped into a point at all. It was just a square block piece covered in whatever the flakey wrap they ‘painted’ it in so I didn’t want to break out files and modify it. Honestly I felt like thats not my job and they needed better quality control. I know guitarfetish has a licensed wilk that I believe is more real than this and fits import bridge post spacing. Good luck!

Easy Install & Quality unit. Stays in tune. Good amount of adjustment for error proof new build. Swapped out tremolo in Eart NK-3 Strat Style for this unit no problems, guitar sounds better and stays in tune even with dive bombs. Highly recommend.

For some unexplained reason the bushings are bigger than the holes in the body. It is close enough that I tried pushing them in resulting in a chip in the finish. Then I had to decide how big to re-drill because they don't tell you the size. Trial and error on some scrap worked out. Now on to the next part. Oops the gizmo that holds the springs has different hole centers than the existing body. More drilling. Why? It's probably a good bridge but the combination of different hole sizes and centers with no instructions is incomprehensible.

Pretty easy install particularly since I did not need to locate stud positions. I used this on a 6 point trem and used the outside screw holes to locate studs. Drilled out holes, tapped in studs and sleeves, and set up. Holds tune well even with extreme dive bombs. I also used this on an already installed 2 point using the previous terms studs which worked but not great. Using included studs greatly improves stability. I will.definitely be considering this trem for future builds. The saddles are excellent but care is needed when tightening them down as over tightening can damage them. Overall a good replacement tremolo.
