Schaller Lockmeister Floyd Rose Tremolo R2 42mm Satin Chrome

Description

Schaller Lockmeister Floyd Rose Tremolo R2 42mm Satin Chrome

Since its debut in 2012, the Schaller LockMeister® became the most advanced locking tremolo: 100 % Made in Germany – designed, engineered, and manufactured. Now we present the first double-locking tremolo that allows individual adjustment to different fretboards, whether straight or compound radius!

The new LockMeister system can now be adapted to different fingerboard radii. While locking nuts (R2/R3) were previously only available with 10″ and tremolos with 12″, there are now 5 different locking nut radii and 4 different tremolo radii to choose from.

The flowing transition from a strongly curved fingerboard in the lower registers to a flatter radius in the higher registers can now be realized exclusively with the new LockMeister system.

Pitch perfect features – only available for LockMeister® 6

• New height-adjusted one-piece string saddles: no more shims needed between saddle and baseplate.
• Fully closed string saddles on the bottom for optimum hold and contact to the baseplate: falling out saddle cover plates are history.
• The extended thread length of the fine-tuner screw delivers a wider tuning range.
• Improved locking nut and tailpiece shapes with a greater variety of radii.
• For longer playing time without retuning
