The Korena take

A locking double-locking tremolo system with matching R2 locking nut, in chrome. For players adding or replacing a Floyd on a routed guitar.

Product studyFloyd Rose Special Series Tremolo Bridge with R2 Nut Chrome

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a worn or non-locking trem on a routed guitar
  • Dive bombs and heavy vibrato use that needs return-to-pitch
  • Budget rebuilds where a full Original system costs too much

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Guitars with no tremolo rout — this needs cavity work
  • Players who change tunings often mid-set
  • Necks whose nut slot is wider than R2 spacing

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 01

Double-locking design

Strings clamp at the nut and at the saddles, so the string never slips at either end.

Detail 02

R2 nut included

R2 is the narrower of the common Floyd nut widths; the neck's nut slot must match it.

Detail 03

Special Series

Floyd's lower-cost line. Same geometry and layout as the Original, built with less expensive materials.

Detail 04

Chrome finish

Bright silver hardware. Matches most stock tuners and pickup covers on non-gold guitars.

Detail 05

Floyd Rose bridge type

A floating recessed trem — it pulls up as well as down, but the guitar must be routed for it.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01The locking nut mounts where the stock nut sits; expect fitting work on the neck
  2. 02Post spacing and rout depth on your guitar must match before ordering
  3. 03String changes take longer — ball ends get cut and strings clamp at both ends

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will this fit my guitar?

Only if the body is routed for a Floyd-style trem with matching post spacing, and the neck takes an R2-width locking nut. Measure both before buying.

02What's the difference between Special and Original?

The Special is Floyd's lower-cost line, built with less expensive materials. Layout, geometry and function are the same.

03Which nut size do I need, R2 or R3?

R2 is the narrower size, R3 the wider. It depends on the width of your neck's nut slot — measure it rather than guessing.

04Can I still tune to drop tunings with it?

You can, but a floating Floyd rebalances with every tuning change. Retuning means resetting spring tension, so it's slow for frequent changes.
