The ULTIMATE BUDGET TREMOLO From Wilkinson...But HOW??

Fifty Two K, mate. They have a similar, cheaper model called the WVS 50K

Speaking from experience, I eventually started to prefer a Floyd Rose bar/mount, and the hole in the baseplate where the mount is attached on the Wilkinson is the same size, so I just put the different bar mount on there.

Hey, that's the exact same tremolo that Carvin designed!

Reverend guitars uses these trem there's a good video on YT. Thanks 💣

i have this WVS50IIK that came in a harley benton fusion, had it for less than a month. Set the intonation twice. First when it arrived and then when i changed string gauges, and two of the six saddle locking screws got rounded and wont turn anymore with the allen key.
Any idea if I could simply buy a VS100N and replace it with that one? apparently its way better quality. Also like 5x the price so dont want to take a chance tbh...

They use Zinc in Pennies. To cut cost. It's pot/ie. shit metal

Just got a Fusion III with this tremolo and I find it very stiff. Thomann says that it's probably because the springs are very new and will loosen up with use ... has anyone removed one of the springs? Wondering if it will affect tuning stability...

Thanks for the heads up on having to block it when you change strings. But how does one do that exactly?

This is the best trem for your money, for sure!

for some reason cant screw the trem bar in

Bla bla bla boring

where can I buy harley benton guitar?

actually you can you can use it upwards for tone and a half, you just need to remove one of the springs on the back (which is recomended in most trems out there)

These wear out fast (soft baseplate) the 100 model is much better IMO

This is super helpful I don't know anything about trems but want to start experimenting with them. I just got a new guitar and find the sustain to be lacking. This might help in the infinite sustain journey. That is without an ebow. lol

I really want to try one of the Wilkinson Floyd type bridges!!

Can this be used for Jackson RR Minion JS1X?

rocking the short shorts !!! lol jk good vid ! mine just arrived in the mail ....peace!

Hi,can it fit on Jackson js22 dinky arch top.

I wonder if I could replace the (awful) Ibanez Fat 20 with one of these?

I just bought a sqoe guitar and it came with this Wilkinson wov10 I believe, I’d say it’s a solid trem for a budget guitar. There’s one issue tho, it came with super low action to the point it produces buzz noise on several fret, I’ll set it up later and give an update on the screw quality.

Can i install a fr arm assembly on it??

Did I miss the part where you installed it and dialed it in?

It’s the smoothest Tremolo I have ever used especially if setup correctly. I use 9-42 and only 2 springs floating with slight upward tilt resulting in a smooth operating trem. 5 springs mounted to the body is BS and it feels like having a tug of war with a rhino.

what size allen key do you use to unlock the bridge? I was intonating yesterday on a new used Laguna en322 guitar I bought and the torx I had started slipping. Looks to be the same exact bridge as yours. Went to the store and bought a sae and metric allen key set and the 1.5mm, 2mm, or 1/16" dont work. I need something between 1.5-2mm or smaller than 1/16"

any recommendations?

Non recessed? Tremolos are not recessed, the recess is not a function the unit it is a function of the guitar body routing. Plenty of guitars have non locking tremolos on a recessed body, Charvel DK 22/24 for example.

The saddle screws do not impact tone they are to lock down the saddles supposedly to increase tuning stability. Sustain blocks don’t add tone in fact pickups only respond to change in the magnetic field so the only thing that matters is what affects the string vibration in a substantial way not in a negligible way. Don’t mislead people due to your misconceptions.

Good vid dude

Mantap

?? What trem would fit a pacifier 112 ??

New subscriber here.... Doing my research here, will one of these Wilkinson tremolo systems fit on a 2021 Squier Stratocaster Affinity HH guitar??? I mistakenly purchased a tremolo block for my Squier Stratocaster to increase the sustain and hopefully add to the value of it, the replacement block that I bought will in no way fit. So now I'm stuck with a useless extra tremolo block and the same factory tremolo system. ANY info that you or anyone else reading this could provide would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Dude, is there any way to put a tremolo or something on a hard tail bridge? I have a dinky hardtail i fucking love i just couldnt afford a guitar with a floyd so i wanted to see if i could hook it up. Please let me know, thanks dude

can put this on my prs se custom 24?

Wilkinson trying to re invent the wheel.

Terrible system of screwed in saddles that aren't spring tensioned which makes intonation and action adjustments extremely awkward.

The standard strat trem is universally accepted for a reason.

This is over-complicated junk, with all due respect.
