Description

This is a complete rebuild kit for a 7-string Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo, finished in gold. It ships with the bridge, locking nut, springs and claw, mounting studs, and all installation hardware — everything needed to pull an old unit and replace it in one go. The block is a fat brass unit; the screws are stainless steel made in the USA; the baseplate and saddles are hardened steel. Assembly is done in Germany.

Fit is the sticking point with any kit. This one shares the footprint of the Floyd Rose Original 7-string, so it drops in cleanly only if what is already in your guitar matches those same dimensions — same series, same 7-string spacing, same stud spacing. If the installed bridge is a different series or a different manufacturer's unit, the studs and routing may not line up. Measure what is in the guitar before ordering. A mismatch here is not a setup problem; it is a woodworking problem.

The Hot Rod Series sits above the standard Original. The fat brass block is the main difference from a stock Original kit — brass changes the mass and the sustain characteristics of the block compared to a steel unit. The stainless steel saddle screws resist the corrosion and wear that strips out zinc or mild steel hardware over years of use.

If you are not certain this kit matches what is in your guitar, send us the make, model and year and we will check it against what we know.
