A small upgrade that makes a real difference in stability
These Fender string guides are designed to guide the strings on the headstock and promote a more consistent break angle over the nut. The result: a more stable feel, especially during bends, vibrato, or aggressive attacks, with fewer tuning variations caused by insufficient string angle.
Ideal for replacing worn parts or for a clean upgrade of your instrument, this set respects the "modern" spirit of the relevant Fender series while maintaining a discreet aesthetic thanks to its chrome finish.

Perfect to replace vintage string trees that attack ropes well. On the installation side, think carefully about the positioning pin for which the handle head must be drilled. And depending on the positioning of the original vintage model, turn it in one direction or the other. My guitars said “Thanks a lot dude”:)

Advantageously replace the “corrugated sheets” that hold the strings on certain instruments. Require meticulous assembly. Good quality of the elements provided; a drilling template would be welcome..
