Detail 01
Precision rail rotation
The tremolo plate rotates around a rail mounted directly to the guitar body rather than rocking on a bevel beneath screw heads.

Independent shopping perspective
Floyd Rose’s narrow chrome Rail Tail is a full-contact, dive-only tremolo for retrofitting an existing Strat-style six-point tremolo without modifying the guitar. Rather than rocking beneath screw heads, its plate turns around a rail mounted directly to the body. Slotted string-block mounting holes allow forward positioning for more rotational range, with dives claimed up to 15 degrees beyond conventional tremolo bridges. Universal rail mounting holes also let this narrow-spaced version mount on a wide-spaced guitar body.
