The WVP6 SS-SB vibrato is a classic styled vibrato with the addition of solid steel saddles and modern saddle surround.
Featuring Wilkinson’s unique 5 + 1 knife edge, the WVP6SS-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 you a fantastic return to zero that a traditional vibrato just cannot match.
Wilkinson solid steel saddles offer greater mass than the traditional bent steel saddle and maximizes string vibration into the hardened steel 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.
