Snugged this into a cheap squire, very tight fit but works and feels great. Can't put backplate on because it sits about even with the body. Keeps tune. Great for the price.

I was shocked to see this for under 20 bucks. You can't get the saddles for that! Took a long time to get the balance or spring tension right. Be prepared for a complete set up! Nice full size trem block. nice chrome

Terrific quality piece upon first sight. Compared it to my MIM strat, a Squier CV strat and I'm feeling 'upgrade-itis' coming on intensely. I will fully know when I install this bridge/block when I get down to it.Until then, I'm buying another to have in reserve and contemplating buying a third one.Think of it, if bought separately the bent-steel saddles, steel block and bridge plate would cost much more if purchased piece-meal.IMPORTANT: This bridge will only work with the smaller tremolo-arm shaft size of 5MM diameter as equipped on most Fender bridges. The Squier guitars require the larger 6MM diameter tremolo arm.FM

It's nice and solid, but i had to grind it down to fit in my old 90's Squier.

If you've got a thin trem block to upgrade or need a trem system for a Strat project but don't want to spend a ton, then this is what you need. Just make sure your width measurements are good to go.

My particular package was worn where the a couple saddle screws got out so I am missing some. Hole for the term bar is misaligned. Thicker bottom than on older Mexican strats. Mine is a 2004. Which is fine because it still have some room to move just not as much because of the body routing. I plan to keep mine decked.

I was hoping this would be an upgrade but it wasn't. Had to use the screws from my old bridge and they fit so tight the trem wouldn't work. Plus the string holes don't line up straight with the saddles. Just not good engineering. Some reviews say it works great so maybe the QC is just uneven but I went back to what came with my kit.

It fit perfectly into my MIM Strat. The upgrade from the flimsy tremolo is notable in performance and sound quality when I hit the whammy bar. In addition, the installed tremolo had an open hole for the whammy bar, so I couldn't install the tension spring. This tremolo is properly closed and accepts the spring. Definitely worth the money.

A cheap and easy upgrade to your Classic Vibe Strat. Those palm cutters those Squiers come with are cheap and just not worth the hassle. Does your guitar sound any better? Probably not, but your palm will thank you.

Works great in my guitar. Have a strat clone, I don't use tremolo, this block is alot bigger than what was in my guitar. I had the bridge block so it couldn't move. Since the Fender big block will not allow movement.....my guitar cavity is too small. I do not have to put a piece of wood into the cavity. Works great for me.

I was never a fan of the stock Starcaster's tremolo as it would bend pitch rather exaggerated for my tastes. Adding the larger tremolo block dramatically increased the stability of the tremolo. I also noticed this bridge has my Starcaster better maintaining it's tune.I would note i did have to bore out the bridge cavity of the guitar as the block is much larger in comparison and was rubbing against the inner wall. I would attribute this to shotty Malaysian manufacturing of the guitar as the bridge cavity appeared to be routed from each side resulting in 1/8 inch lip/differential. i was able to reduce the offset with a Dremel sanding tool, allowing the tremolo to move freely. I am handy with a Dremel and have a shop vac mounted to catch all sawdust - so i did not mind at all. Just to forewarn those who may not be comfortable doing so.

great upgrade and really good looking but does not fit my squier strat. it is too long and pokes out the backside of the guitar, i fixed this by just not putting the backplate on but i am going to file it down to fit in the future.

Just like it shows in the pictures and says in the description, this listing doesn't include any of the hardware to install the tremolo, just the tremolo itself.I didn't actually see that when purchasing this, but I made it work for now with cheap chinese parts. It's easy to miss what's included when you're comparing tremolos with other models that all include the hardware, so I thought I'd post this review because if you're like me you're more likely to read details in the review section.It's a great trem, and at this price you really can't go wrong. I only paid $23, so I've literally paid more for a hamburger
