Detail 01
Locking studs
The tailpiece or bridge clamps to the post instead of resting loose on it. Nothing shifts or falls off unstrung.

1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement locking studs for a stop tailpiece or bridge on a US-threaded guitar. Chrome. Stops the hardware lifting when strings come off.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Keeping a stop tailpiece seated during string changes
- Replacing worn or wobbly studs on a US-made set-neck guitar
- Players who change strings often and lose intonation each time
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Import guitars with metric-threaded body inserts
- Anyone needing a full bridge — these are the posts only
- Guitars with a tremolo instead of a stop tailpiece
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
US thread
Imperial thread pitch, made for US-built guitars. Metric-threaded import bodies will not accept these.
Detail 03
Chrome
Matches chrome tuners, bridge, and pickup covers. Next to nickel hardware it reads brighter and cooler.
Detail 04
Studs only
No bridge, tailpiece, or saddles included. This is a hardware upgrade to what you already have.
Detail 05
Fixed height once locked
You set action first, then lock. Changing height later means unlocking and redoing it.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your body inserts are US thread, not metric — a wrong thread will not seat
- 02Bridge and tailpiece are not included; you're reusing your current ones
- 03Set your action and intonation before locking the studs down
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my Epiphone or import guitar?
Likely not. Most imports use metric-threaded inserts. These are US thread. Check your existing stud thread before ordering.
02Do I get a bridge with this?
No. These are the studs alone. If you need the bridge and tailpiece too, buy a complete locking set instead.
03What problem do locking studs actually solve?
The bridge or tailpiece can no longer lift, tilt, or fall off when you take the strings off, so your setup survives a string change.
04Can I still adjust action after installing?
Yes, but you unlock the studs, set the height, then re-lock. Do your setup first to save the extra step.
