STRING LOCKS MK2 gold plated version

Description

String Locks MK2  are superior upgrade, with improved plating,  replacement saddles for any 10.5 mm saddle on strat-style tremolo tailpieces.    The common and problematic issue with most standard strat-style tremolos is, when in use, the strings have a tendency to seat/seize, thus pulling the string sharp - especially the G string. Locking the string to the saddle via an allen screw secures the movement of the string at the saddle, thus keeping the string in tune and fixed. This prevents detuning and or, strings returning sharp.
Basically for 7$ a string you can secure your tailpiece as with say a Floyd Rose system, but keeping the original tailpiece aesthetic intact. Two styles of String Locks are available: SL-1 for center pull (stock strat tremolo), or SL-2 for side pull (American Standard Strats).
Made from gold-plated white brass, these saddles improve sustain substantially, as well as locking the string in place. These saddles replace most strat copies as well as G&L guitars with tremolo.
This unit comes with 6 locking saddles, intonation screws (1.5mm), springs, and an allen wrench. The height adjustment screws are the same size as the locking allen screw, so adjustment is easy.
Being the lead guitarist with "Quarterflash" back in the 80's, I toured world-wide using an early version of my SL's and can testify to their effectiveness.  "Wouldn't use the tremolo without them."
Note: Keep in mind, threading strings through the SL saddle can take more time than the stock saddle, but once familiar with the process, the benefit in performance far outweighs the learning curve.   Pictures show in chrome finishes as well as gold.
