Fender locking trem w/o locking nut

[Guest]

Fender has an odd sort of trem system on their locking trem am dlx strats. It uses their locking trem with locking tuners and the LSR roller nut instead of the usual locking nut.

Was wondering what locking trem users think of the system and whether you think it'd be as stable as your regular FR type systems. I don't think these kinds of strats get brought in by Swee Lee so it'll just have to theoretical guesswork since noone is likely to have tried one.

the Jeff Beck model features a roller nut type also (but bridge isn't locking) + it's available here.

there are guitars devoid of such tune-friendly features which return to pitch impressively after a whammy manipulation. Greg Koch proved just that during his clinic here, he used a stock Am Series strat.

but note the change in tone... is very different from having a bone nut.

LSR roller nut available at Davis but U need a qualified tech to carve up yr existing nut area on yr guitar to fit - unless U already own an old wilkinson style nut strat.

Hi Subversion,

I'v read you pm. Very useful.
So the thing is call LSR roller nut, right?

How much does it cost per piece?

Thanks again in advance.
