    Description

    The Gotoh 510T-BS1 blends vintage Strat-style feel with modern 2-post mounting and refined tuning stability. It features bent steel saddles, which are known for producing a slightly softer attack and more open, bell-like highs compared to solid block saddles. With Gotoh’s FST (Fulcrum Stabilizing Technology) and premium build quality, the BS1 offers smooth tremolo response and consistent return to pitch.

    This model is ideal for players who want to preserve classic Strat tone and response while upgrading to a more stable and modern bridge system. It’s particularly well suited for blues, vintage rock, and expressive lead playing.


    Fitment Summary

    • Mounting Style: 2-post pivot (74mm post spacing)

    • String Spacing: 10.8mm (standard)

    • Saddles: Vintage-style bent steel

    • Block: Steel (commonly 36mm or 42mm)

    • Trem Arm: Push-in (Gotoh A7)

    • FST: Yes – included for tuning stability


    ️ Installation Notes

    The 510T-BS1 is compatible with most Strat-style guitars using a 2-post tremolo system and 10.8mm string spacing, such as American Deluxe Strats, Suhr Classics, and other modern builds. Not suitable for 6-screw vintage bridges or guitars with narrow 10.5mm spacing without modification.

    The bent steel saddles give it a tone closer to vintage Fender trems, with a slightly looser feel and more traditional string response. Includes all hardware for installation, including trem arm, springs, claw, and posts.
