What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Compatibility is described broadly for Floyd Rose-style, Strat and Squier guitars. Confirm the instrument's nut width, string spacing and top-mount screw layout before ordering. The listing uses both “metal” and “Zinc alloy” for material, so the exact material description is inconsistent.
