FenderVintage Strat Tremolo Arm
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement tremolo arm for vintage-style Fender Strat bridges. Buy it if your arm is missing, bent, or stripped at the threads.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Vintage-style Strat bridges with a threaded arm hole
- Replacing an arm lost or bent from heavy use
- Keeping a spare in the case for gigs
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- American Standard and two-point bridges, which use a different arm
- Non-Fender bridges like Floyd Rose or Bigsby
- Anyone whose arm wobbles from a worn block, not the arm
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Threaded rather than push-in
Tension is set by how far you thread it down, plus a spring or nylon sleeve in the hole.
Detail 03
Sold as the arm alone
The bridge block, tremolo springs, and mounting hardware stay whatever is already in your guitar.
Detail 04
Stratocaster-specific
Arm diameter and thread pitch are matched to Fender vintage blocks, so other brands may not thread in.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check whether your bridge takes a screw-in arm or a push-in arm first
- 02Nothing else is included — no tension spring, sleeve, or tip
- 03A loose arm usually means a worn block, and a new arm will not fix that
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my American Standard Strat?
No. American Standard bridges use a push-in arm with a different fitment. Fender sells a separate arm for those.
02Does it come with the white tip?
Treat it as the arm only. If your old tip is intact, it can be moved over to the new arm.
03Why does my arm swing loose?
Usually a worn thread or missing tension spring in the bridge block. A new arm helps only if the arm itself is stripped.
04Can I use this on a non-Fender guitar?
Only if that bridge uses the same vintage Fender thread size. Import and licensed bridges often differ.
