A complete double-locking tremolo system for left-handed 6-string electric guitars, finished in black nickel. The kit ships with the bridge, saddles, tremolo block, locking nut, arm, springs, claw, mounting studs and all installation hardware — everything needed to build out or replace a full floating tremolo system in one order. The block is nickel-plated brass, the base plate and saddles are hardened steel, the arm is stainless steel, and the springs are coiled steel. No separate sourcing for the nut or the claw.
String count and mounting route decide whether this fits before anything else does. This is a 6-string unit — it will not work on a 7- or 8-string instrument. Beyond that, the guitar's existing route matters more than the brand on the old bridge. A recessed floating system needs a rear cavity; a top-mount system does not. If the guitar currently has a non-locking bridge, fitting this is a routing job. Stud spacing and neck angle both affect whether this drops into an existing Floyd-spec rout or needs bench work. Measure the route and the stud spacing before ordering.
The finish is black nickel. The part number is FRT500L — the L designates the left-handed configuration. Right-handed players should look elsewhere; the string and saddle geometry is mirrored.
If you are not certain this is the right fit for your guitar, send us the make, model and year and we will check it against what we know.
