nice fit and finish just with it came with new screws.

Fue un buen regalo para mi yerno le encant !!!

I just got it installed and letting the new strings and other components settle.The saddles appear to be working and screws are tight.

Has a really nice weight to it, and the Fender logos on the bridge pieces is more subtle than in the pictures.

I bought this strat because it was a great deal. Now with the larger trem block it became a great guitar!0

Fit my 60's cv strat perfectly. Careful opening as some of the height screws came out and I had to hunt them on the floor. This replaced the cheap thin tremolo block with something that gives much better sustain. It also sounds fuller when not plugged in. The height screws are taller than the squier saddle screws so they can adjust for even higher action which I like.

If you are upgrading a cheaper foreign-made Strat (like a Mexican or, in particular, a Squier Strat), the tremolo weight is more than twice as heavy in this bridge, giving richer tone longer sustain. Just be sure to use the whammy bar that comes with it since the bars differ in width (and in screw count, which might not be noticeable at first, but will wear on the system in time. Intonation action settings are solid. If you're replacing the cheap tremolo on a Squier, note that this tremolo weight is longer than the Squier's you won't be able to put the back plate on again (no grief since most pros keep them off for quicker string changes on stage or in studios). Use only three of the springs, placed left, right center on the bar claw. Note: for a true floating bridge that you can pull up as well as swoop, put a popsicle stick (say 0.08 thick) between the back end of the bridge the body before adjusting intonation action. Then with the strings at their playing tension, start loosening the screws on the claw from the back a quarter-turn at a time counter-clockwise until the popsicle stick slips out easily. The combined tension of the strings the internal springs will hold the bridge in the proper floating position.I would also suggest replacing your nut at the same time if you have a plastic one. You can use bone, but the best is the self-lubricated Tusq material, which doesn't wear on the strings so much at the nut when you do bends tremolo. While you have the strings off to do your installation, take advantage of it to clean oil the fretboard sand down the frets to evenness, using finer finer sandpaper, finishing off with Meguier's non-compound polish for the smoothest bends. For Squiers, you can also get a $5.00 grit sponge from Home Depot to smooth off the edges of the frets at the sides of the fretboard, which are often not as finely finished as on an American Standard Strat. Rub up and back on the side edges of the fretboard at about a 45 degree angle to get a bit of a rounded edge to the fretboard too, which will make sliding up and down the neck easier. You want both the best tone the best playability out of the guitar. Take a little time you can make your guitar much better in both areas. If you want to go whole hog and have a Squier that's better than a $2,000 Fender, have a luthier install handwound pickups with Alnico 5 (or 3 for mellower) poles instead of the cheap ceramic magnets Squier uses. Don't forget to wire in new 250K pots. If you can't handle basic soldering, let a technician or luthier install the PUs pots. You can even have it wired so the middle switch position enables both the bridge neck PUs use a push-pull blender pot to be able to blend in all three pickups for some very different sounds no stock Fender can produce.

I installed it on my 49 year old Dagnostino/Matsumoto guitar. I did have to make minor adjustments. It has breathed new life into this guitar. It is a joy to play.

Excellent product!

I used this to upgrade my cheap squire affinity Strat that came in a box kit. My goal was to take my first guitar and mod the heck out of it and this piece made a huge difference in how the guitar played. The original block as others have mentioned was small and cheap feeling. When I got the new one in, the first thing I did was compare the weight of the two and surprise, the full sized hunk of solid metal weighs more and felt great compared to the original.I will echo what others have been saying that if you have a lower end squire, it might stick out of the back a little bit. For me, this wasn't a deal breaker because I haven't had a back plate on for a while so I still bought it and I would gladly do it again. I will also say that the original squire trem bar doesnt fit anymore but I feel like this is more due to the squire trem bar being for a cheap bridge and not because of something wrong with the new bridge block. Truth be told, I haven't tested another trem bar yet but it works for me. Overall, It was worth the investment

I upgraded a cheap Fender Starcaster (circa 2012) I purchased for $100, and I plunked in new Fender Vintage Noiseless pickups, and since I was messing around under the pickguard I figured why not upgrade my bridge? This one is thick, heavy, substantial, and fits nicely in the well of my guitar. I was a little embarrassed seeing how thick and heavy this one was compared to the cheap thin one the guitar came with. To think I was putting up with such a substandard piece of equipment for so long?Easy to install and functions just the same as the cheapy stock one, but oh the sound quality! A string will ring for 15-20 seconds with this bridge, not that I'll let it go that long. I'm a Clapton fan so ultimately I'm gonna stick a block in there to give it even more sustain, but for $18, what a huge upgrade!

Installs easily

Exact replacement upgrade for strat style guitars.Massive block delivers nice sustain.Fender branded product well worth the money.This thing is heavy too.

My old bridge had seen better days, so I ordered this and bang it fit perfectly. Guitar stays in tune longer.

Lot better

I used this for my SQUIER strat. It is the same as the one installed in the factory, except for the block. This block improved sustain and the tone of my .

High quality parts that fit perfectly. That's about all I can say about those.

The saddles are very good and the intonation screws are very precise. The issue comes with the block being too tall for many strats. It fit in mine but forget about any tremolo action. On the other hand you get some amazing tone an sustain if your happy without the trem. It really needs a shorty block. 36mm or shorter. I have the bridge an saddles I like so I can replace the block at any time. For the price this is an awesome deal, I think. I give it four stars for the block being so big and no hardware with it but most guitarists have that stuff on hand.

This tremolo worked perfectly for me. I thought I was gonna have to take the block to a machine shop to get it cut but my Guitar is thick enough for it. I'm able to put the back cover without making any contact on the springs or block. It looks amazing and I am happy with this product.

Dropped into my 2008 Squier with no modding. I replaced the cheap and thin factory block. The vintage style saddles also just look way better. Perfect if you're looking to make inexpensive upgrades to your cheap Strat. Huge upgrade in tone and sustain. And for only $19? It's a steal.
