A tremolo device for stringed instrument and a stringed instrument. The tremolo device (1) includes base plate (2) with saddle assemblies (3) mounted independently and corresponding to strings. Each saddle assembly includes front (4) and rear (5) string saddle, located on the base plate upper surface and connected movably with asymmetric arms and connecting element (6). At each saddle assembly there is saddle mounting screw (7) for positioning to the base plate, string lock insert (9), string lock screw (10) for locking string (32) and fine tuning screw (8). To the base plate sustain block (16) is mounted with recesses (16a) and openings (16b), also housings (16c) with fine tuning springs (17), contacting with the respective rear (5) string saddle. To the sustain block (16) balancing mechanism (21) and tremolo arm (19) are settled. The stringed instrument is equipped with tremolo unit (1) and top lock unit (37). |

1. Tremolo device for stringed instrument including a base plate, movably mounted to the instrument body via pivot assembly, on the base plate upper surface a set of saddle assemblies are mounted independently of each other, their number corresponding to the number of strings of the instrument, each saddle assembly containing a front and rear string saddle, connected by a connecting element disposed perpendicularly to the corresponding string and allowing for rotation of the rear string saddle, wherein to each saddle assembly means are provided for fixing them to the base plate, for fine tuning and intonation, and on the base plate lower surface a sustain block is mounted, at the lower end of which a balancing mechanism is settled with elastic elements, fixed in their other end to the instrument body, to the tremolo device a manipulation mechanism with tremolo arm for manipulation is also provided for, wherein:
the front (4) and (5) rear string saddle of each saddle assembly (3) are disposed on the base plate (2) upper surface and are formed with asymmetrically projecting arms which are connected by the connecting element (6), as in the front portion of the front (4) string saddle a slot (4a) is formed through which a saddle mounting screw (7) is passed and mounted to the base plate (2), and in the back portion of the rear string saddle (5), coaxially to the slot (4a), a rear slot (5a) is formed through which a fine tuning screw (8) is mounted and fixed to the base plate (2), wherein from the slot (5a) to the back wall of the rear string saddle (5) upper threaded opening (5d) is extended for intonation adjustment with horizontal displacement “x” by means of a magnet adjustment screw (11); in the front portion of the rear string saddle (5), in parallel to the axis of slots (4a) and (5a), a string receiver recess (5b) is formed, extending to provided front slot (5c) from which a lower threaded opening (5e) extends reaching the back wall of the rear (5) string saddle; in the sustain block (16) recesses (16a) are formed, whose number corresponds to the number of instrument strings, as in the recesses (16a) pass two-step holes (16b) and spring housings (16c) are formed, where in the spring housings (16c) spring elements (17) are mounted passing through openings provided in the base plate (2) and contacting with the lower surface of the rear string saddles (5), for rotation of the rear (5) string saddle at “y” angle with respect to the base plate (2) surface. |
