主权项 1. A keyless tremolo locking system for a musical instrument comprising: a first locking system including at least one tightening post and at least one lever, the at least one tightening post including a threaded portion being configured to be inserted into a string clamp, a smooth shaft, and a lever engagement mechanism configured to interface with the at least one lever, and the at least one lever having a hollow bottom surface that is configured to engage and disengage with the lever engagement mechanism, the hollow bottom surface being positioned on a first end of the lever, wherein when the hollow bottom surface of the at least one lever is engaged with the lever engagement mechanism and the first lever is rotated in a first direction then the tightening post is rotated further into the string clamp, and when the lever is disengaged from the lever engagement mechanism the hollow bottom surface of the at least one lever encompasses the smooth shaft and can rotate in the first direction or a second direction without rotating the tightening post, a second locking system including a hollow passageway that is configured to encompass a string, the second locking system including a clamping member and a closing member;the clamping member a circumference that increases and decreases in size;the closing member being configured to be removably coupled to a threaded section of the second locking system to increase or decrease the size of the circumference of the clamping member.
