Built in Japan by Gotoh, it combines a hardened steel base plate, solid steel saddles and a locking pivot, and it is widely regarded as one of the most refined upgrades available for a vintage-style tremolo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for stability and sustain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard tremolos lose tuning when the bridge returns from a dive or pull. The VS100N addresses the usual causes. Its locking pivot studs hold the bridge firmly in place, so the unit returns to the same position every time instead of wandering. Solid steel saddles and a rigid base plate give the strings a stable, accurate contact point and transfer string energy cleanly into the body, which supports sustain and a clear, defined attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-point pivot with locking studs:\u003c\/strong\u003e smooth, consistent movement and a bridge that settles back to pitch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid steel saddles:\u003c\/strong\u003e precise string guidance and long-term durability, even under hard playing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardened steel base plate:\u003c\/strong\u003e a rigid foundation that resists flexing and wear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZinc block:\u003c\/strong\u003e adds mass for a full, resonant sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10.8 mm string spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 54 mm overall, the standard layout for Strat-style guitars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGotoh arm holder system:\u003c\/strong\u003e the arm stays where you set it and swings freely when you need it, with no rattle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndividually adjustable saddles:\u003c\/strong\u003e set string height and intonation exactly the way you want.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool-free string changes:\u003c\/strong\u003e faster restringing, which is a real convenience on stage and in the workshop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in Japan:\u003c\/strong\u003e precision machining and a clean, consistent finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrand: Gotoh (Wilkinson\/Gotoh VS100N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType: Two-point tremolo, Strat-style, 6-string, right-handed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eString spacing: 10.8 mm (0.43\"); total 54 mm (2.13\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum stud spacing: 56.8 mm (2.24\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlock dimensions (H x W): 41 x 63 mm (1.61 x 2.48\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSaddles: solid steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlock: zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOrigin: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTremolo arm, spring, spring claw with screws, hex wrench, locking stud and anchor, ready for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment and installation notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VS100N suits Strat-style guitars with a two-point tremolo layout. It is a drop-in match for many instruments, but dimensions differ slightly between models and between older and newer bridges. Before installing, compare the stud spacing, the block size and the route in your guitar. The block is large and has notches that differ from some vintage-style blocks, so the cavity or the arm hole may need a little fitting on some guitars. The anchor bushings can also differ in diameter from those on your current bridge, so check them against the holes in the body. A good setup will matter: fresh strings, a well-cut nut and properly set spring tension all help the tremolo return to pitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers replacing a worn or low-quality tremolo, owners of Strat-style guitars who want more stability and precision, and builders looking for a dependable, well-made bridge for a custom project.
