Are you looking to upgrade your existing instrument with new appointments?

Are you still trying to figure out the best counterparts in the market?

The Strings

Bridge

When choosing a guitar bridge, there are commonly 2 main types.

  1. Fixed &
  2. Tremolo 

While upgrading the guitar bridge can be tricky, it’s worth your investment. 

For instance, moving from a Stock Vibrato Fender Stratocaster Bridge to a Floyd Rose will help boost sustain and tuning stability while using the Tremolo Arm as part of your playing.

Fretwraps

As a come-of-age guitarist, you must have heard about Fretwraps.

They are increasingly used by seasoned musicians worldwide (i.e. Guthrie Govan) to tighten the sound output, thereby adding to the clarity of notes played.

When looking for online guitar parts, Fretwraps are an essential upgrade; this dampening accessory is designed to kill string overtones from your playing and control mechanical noise created by “Sympathetic Vibration,” helping to keep the instrument quiet. 

All you need to do is wrap them around the neck, moveable above or below the nut or guitar tailpiece, and you are sorted!
