WV6SS-SB

The Industry Standard

WV6SS-SB Vibrato

The WV6SS-SB vibrato follows a classic styled vibrato with the addition of solid steel saddles. Featuring Wilkinson’s unique 5+1 knife edge the WV6SS-SB retains all the fantastic tone transfer of a six screw pivot setup without the tuning issues associated from the classic vibrato. Elongating five of the six mounting screw holes avoids binding of the screws on the top plate, whilst the sixth hole is used traditionally to locate the vibrato laterally. This combination gives the WV6SS-SB a fantastic return to zero that a traditional vibrato just cannot match.

Uniquely Wilkinson

Our Wilkinson solid steel saddles offer greater mass than the traditional bent steel saddle and maximizes string vibration into the hardened top plate and Solid Steel block, drilled to the unique Wilkinson stagger pattern a consistent angle is achieved for each string from the saddle into the steel block, this feature combined with deep drilling each hole adds even greater tuning stability, increased sustain and ease of intonation. Removing the issues of the threaded traditional vibrato arm, the WV6SS-SB features a push in arm that inserts neatly into a delrin sleeve that is seated in the block; tension on the bar is adjusted via a grub screw on the rear of the block, allowing the player to set the stiffness of movement to taste.
