Schaller LockMeister™ Tremolo - beyond your expectations  

 LockMeister_6_247

Since its debut in 2012, the Schaller LockMeister became the most advanced locking tremolo, designed, engineered & 100 % Made in Germany. As the sole manufacturer of the world‘s most renowned double locking tremolo we felt it was time to push the envelope for the LockMeister™ Tremolo.

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.

You can choose between:

  • 4 x LockMeister Tremolos with fixed bridge radii: 10″, 12″, 14″ and 16″

About guitar neck profiles and playability

The neck profile, your own hand, and the fretboard radius determine comfort and playability. A rounder fingerboard conforms more to the natural curvature of the fingers, which is ideal for playing in lower registers, such as chords and barré grips. A flat radius provides a more even playing surface, ideal for bending and faster vertical playing in higher registers, which is often preferred for solos.
