This new style tremolo arm is an
off-shoot of our original "EZ-Trem" but we find this version a bit
more attractive visually yet performs the same with
it's unique "drop down" design.
Featured here is a unique new design
for a Strat tremolo
arm; The "Drop Trem". As you already know, when in use, the standard Strat tremolo arm
comes straight toward the neck as it comes up and out of the bridge, with the
"Drop Trem" design it drops down at an angle" before turning and coming back toward the
neck (as depicted in the photo to the right and
below).
This in effect lowers the tremolo arm and places it in a more forward and
natural angle within the hand when swung into the playing position.
The "Drop Trem" design is very comfortable for
those that like to hold or rest the tremolo arm in their hand while playing, it
also facilitates palm muting of the strings with ease. You will find that the "Drop
Trem" tremolo arm is a unique improvement over the standard or
traditional Strat tremolo
arm style.
Our "Drop Trem" is at it's best when your bridge is set up as
"Free Floating". With a free floating bridge setup very subtle and
accurate tremolo effect can be achieved quite effectively.
Our "Drop Trem" tremolo
arms are custom manufactured from Precision Ground 303 Stainless Steel
in three lengths for the Fender Stratocaster style
of guitars. The
Precision Ground finish provides a very smooth and clean appearance. The 303
grade of stainless steel offers
strength, durability and excellent machinability to
produce clean accurate threading. The "Drop Trem" tremolo arms are threaded at the attachment end
in either American UNF 10-32 or Metric 5mm threading, they are also threaded on
the tip end to accept standard plastic tips. The "Drop Trem" is
manufactured for right handed guitars only.
