Apparatus, such as a stringed musical instrument, is provided with a fulcrum tremolo with a plurality of intonation modules that are adjustably mounted on the base plate of the tremolo. Each intonation module, which seperately incorporates the function of the bridge element and the tailpiece incorporates a novel macro-tuning invention whereby as the individual strings are tuned from an untensioned condition the string passes over the bridge portion, and under a second portion providing a StringClip that progressively grips the string. The macro-tuner means employs a pin-like string holder element which provides the anchoring means or tailpiece function at one end and an adjustment knob threadedly engaged with the string holder element for positioning the string holder element and, therefore, the anchor point, relative to the second critical point for macro-tuning. Additionally, the string holder element has a first creative position closer to the second critical point when the string is in a low or no tensioned condition and can be threaded through the intonation body without engaging the gripping means. The string holder element has a second creative position further the second critical point holding the string in a tensioned condition where the tension of the string proportionally engages the gripping means and renders this portion of the string substantially inextensible in the direction of the anchor point from the second critical point.
