Floyd Rose Speed Loader Tremolo Bridge
The SpeedLoader Tremolo offers all the versatility of the original Floyd Rose Tremolo with the ease and performance of the SpeedLoader System. You can still execute the most subtle tremolo or wildest dive-bombing effects and return to perfect tuning every time. The SpeedLoader tremolo also features the new Floyd Rose TremStopper that enables the player to block the tremolo system with a simple turn of a screw.
This bridge system is designed to work with Floyd Rose Speed Loader Strings. To ensure Floyd Rose quality and consistency, these strings have undergone years of rigorous development and testing to meet Floyd's exacting specifications. Speed Loader Strings are only for use on Speed Loader Bridges and Convergent Tuning Bridges. String end components are precision made in Switzerland by one of the world's leading manufacturers of Swiss machine parts. String wire is manufactured in the United States by the leading music wire manufacturers.
Strings are precision cut to within 0.002 inch and string ends are applied to the wire with pneumatic crimping machines designed by Floyd Rose to achieve a pitch tolerance of plus or minus 18 percent (18/100 of a semi-tone (this is about 1/4 turn of a fine tuning)). Each and every string is tested for pitch tolerance compliance prior to packaging.
