Product Description

Tremsetter 401000 Tremolo Stabilizer. The Hipshot Tremsetter greatly improves guitar performance by stabilizing your tremolo. It automatically returns your full-floating tremolo to its exact "zero" neutral position, eliminating flutter and sag, so your guitar remains in tune. With the Tremsetter you can bend strings, play bridge harmonics, aggressive rhythm parts or mute strings, and the bridge remains stable. Best of all, the Tremsetter is total retro-fit. No need to chop up your vintage axe, just install it and play! The Tremsetter installs on your tremolo guitar in the back cavity where the springs are. When you put the cover plate back on your guitar you will never even know the Tremsetter is there doing it's job. The Tremsetter automatically brings your guitar back to its "zero" or starting position. Ordinarily, your tremolo relies on string tension pulling against the springs in the back of your guitar. It's a delicate balance similar to the way a teeter totter works. If one side is just a little out of balance, your guitar will be out of tune. The Tremsetter overrides this precarious balancing situation and brings your tremolo back to the exact "in-tune" position. You can still push down and pull back on the tremolo to raise and lower my stings. The Tremsetter works very similarly to a double hinged door; i.e., the door can swing both ways, but comes to rest in the center position. When you let go or your tremolo arm after you have raised or lowered your strings, the Tremsetter automatically returns your tremolo to it's "zero" position. The Tremsetter works on Floyd Rose equipped guitars, and will work on just about any style of fulcrum tremolo including Fender, Wilkinson, Kahler, and Ibanez. The Tremsetter stabilizes your tremolo and eliminates annoying flutter. The flutter or warbling sound is really your string energy being absorbed by your tremolo springs. The Tremsetter lightly holds your tremolo in position so that your string's energy goes through y...

It does what it's supposed to do.

When it's set up just right, it works really well and you wonder how you ever got along without it. It's definitely difficult to set up, though. The video from Hipshot makes it look easy... Maybe it just works when it's installed for some, but not me. My tremelo is a Floyd Rose Special and it took quite a bit of effort. The install went like it did in the video, but it didn't do anything... There needs to be balance between EVERYTHING. Also, the hole was really hard to get straight even with a long drill bit. I made it straight with my dremel. I had to cut the hook for the tremsetter in half so it would fit in my guitar's cavity with the correct measurements. There's no video or instructions online on how to "adjust" the thing... at all. The instructions that it comes with have some very basic instructions on how to do adjustments. Not enough, though... I saw a review that said that there was a knocking or something after the install and that he installed it correctly. Maybe so, but it wasn't adjusted correctly. Mine was doing the same thing. The knocking came from the tremsetter's spring thing going too far back and hitting the back of its base. If that happens, you need to adjust the the thumb screw that's closest to the allen screw so that it moves towards your bridge and then push the allen screw part further towards your bridge. It won't make contact with the back part anymore when you do that and the knocking sound goes away. If the tremsetter isn't doing anything like you didn't just install it, then you need to compress the big spring on the tremsetter. Do that by turning the thumb both thumb screws towards each other. I had to compress it quite a bit before I started noticing any change. Now it words flawlessly.

Works great when properly adjusted

This works as described when properly installed and set up adjusted correctly. I have had these installed now for 3 years in both my Floyd Rose trem guitars. Installation was a little scary but if you have some experience soldering and using an electric drill you should be fine. You may have to do some "field engineering" during the install so don't try this on a collectible guitar on your first try. Hipshot does have a video covering the install and setup adjustment which is very helpful. If you get the "clunk" noise it means the collar adjustment is not correct so try again. And if you change string gauge expect to redo the adjustment as the whole thing depends on proper tension between the tremsetter, strings and springs. I can dive bomb, pull up, fast vibrato like crazy and it returns to tune every time.

You must install it exactly as the manufacturer says in the instructions. There is an additional adjustment that needs to be done as s last step. It is in the manual. If you skip that step you will be disappointed. Otherwise it is the best tremelo stabilizer I have ever used, ordered more awaiting the arrival.

I wanted to love it...did not. Might be great for others.

I just think this is overly complicated. My guitar did have a short cavity which required cutting the screw clip. That was fine....drilling the hole was a PITA because of the angle. After getting it installed I just wasn't able to adjust it where I was happy.

I got so frustrated that I ended up doing some more research and learned from Carl Verheyen that setting a floating trem is really about physics. Sure enough, I followed his instructions (after de-installing the hipshot) and had the floating trem set up in no time.

I may still install the hipshot in another guitar, but for now, it sits in my guitar parts graveyard.

Not good.. added a knocking sound

Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2017

When I worked my trem, it made a slight knocking sound when my trem passes through the tremsetter's "neutral" point. Yes, it was set up properly, it's just a horrible unintended nature of the device. Took it off and regretted theoney I wasted.

It works as advertised, just be prepared for some frustration during the install......

I was already familiar with The Hipshot Tremsetter because i have one installed on my 1996 Strat Plus, but that was factory installed by Fender.
I put this one on as a fresh install on a Strat style build with a Wilkinson floating trem, and while the actual install wasn't difficult....some minor drilling, the needed adjustments afterward were just hellacious.

My personal opinion is, if you're not comfortable with doing this kind of thing on your guitar...the drilling, measuring, then the subsequent floating bridge setup, take it to a shop and pay to have it done.
If you're gonna do it yourself, "patience and perseverance" are key.

As i said, it does work, so four stars for that, but one star taken off for the difficulty...maybe that's unfair but.........whatever.

Good luck!!!!!!

Lengthy set up process but works great.

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2020

Easy to install but finicky to set uo properly.
I had to mount the hipshot hook on a volume pot nut in order to raise the back, effectively decreasing the angle from the tremolo block. Without lifting it, the retainer collar would hit the hook while using it. After install, spring tension, bridge level snd tuning balance will be even more intolerant. (a pain in the a**) but the trade off is worth it. No more flutter. No more string bend de-tuing. This thing works great at stsbilizing a floyd rose. Be prepared to tinker.
