Description Technical Specs
 
Wilkinson's take on the vintage style trem, mounting with the classic 56.4mm (2 7/32") screw spacing, but with narrower string spacing at 54mm (2 1/8”).

The narrower spacing gives a much more stable string lie across the neck, limiting the possibilities of the E strings slipping off the frets, a great little touch for anyone who likes their hammer ons and pull offs.

The steel block is also sports staggered string holes to make corrections to the intonation a relatively simple job, without putting too much stress on the saddles, and as with all steel blocks, it helps magnify the overall sustain, brightness and top end, resulting in a more expansive tone.

Another nice feature on the Wilkinson trems is the push in whammy arm. A simply solution to an age old problem! Wilkinson have installed a “clamping” bush inside the block, secured by a small bolt on the rear of the block.

All in all, these really are a great tremolo, flawless construction, innovative design and very competitively priced.

Supplied with trem arm, springs, screws, claw and alan key.
