About This Item
Description
The Vega-Trem VT1 Special 6-Screw Left-Handed bridge in Glossy is a purpose-built upgrade for left-handed Strat-style guitars using a 6-Screw vibrato mounting. Its stainless-steel components and solid brass block add punch and a distinct response for rock and high-gain playing, while smooth 2-way vibrato and left-handed geometry avoid adapting right-handed hardware. It uses the original cavity and mounting holes without drilling or routing a compatible guitar.
Pedalzoo Fit Check Before You Order
This listing is the 6-Screw Left-Handed version, built for left-handed Strat-style guitars that use a 6-Screw vibrato mounting system. Before you buy, confirm your exact guitar model, whether the bridge is mounted with six front-edge screws or two larger posts, and that you need left-handed geometry. The 6-Screw versus 2-Point choice is determined by the bridge mounting hardware, not by the Strat-style body shape.
- Confirm your exact guitar model and bridge mounting in the Pedalzoo Vega-Trem Compatibility Finder before ordering.
- This is the 6-Screw Left-Handed listing; it is not intended for 2-Point guitars or right-handed instruments.
- On a compatible guitar, it uses the original 6-Screw cavity and mounting holes without drilling or routing.
If your model is not listed, contact Pedalzoo before ordering. Once fit is confirmed, follow the Pedalzoo Vega-Trem installation guide.

VT1 Special or VT1 Ultra Trem: which should you choose?
Both use the same VT1 saddles, pivot system, and manufacturing quality.

FAQ
Will this fit my left-handed guitar?
It is designed for a left-handed Strat-style guitar with a traditional 6-Screw synchronized tremolo route. Confirm the exact guitar model in the Pedalzoo Vega-Trem Compatibility Finder.
How can I tell whether my guitar needs the 6-Screw or 2-Point version?
A traditional 6-Screw bridge has a row of six mounting screws along the front edge; a 2-Point bridge pivots on two larger posts. This listing is the left-handed 6-Screw version. Use the Pedalzoo Vega-Trem Compatibility Finder if the route or mounting pattern is uncertain.
Do I need a locking nut or locking tuners?
No. A locking nut and locking tuners are not required to install or use this bridge. Tuning stability still depends on correct stringing, nut condition, spring balance, and a complete setup; locking tuners can simplify string changes but do not replace proper setup.
Does installation require permanent modification?
No drilling or routing is intended on a compatible left-handed 6-Screw guitar.
Where can I get installation help?
Vega-Trem is designed for straightforward at-home installation on a compatible guitar. Follow the Pedalzoo Vega-Trem installation guide using the included hardware and common hand tools. After installation, check spring balance, tuning, action, and intonation.
