52.5mm 6-Screw Tremolo Bridge with 36mm Brass Block - Chrome

In this review the Musiclily Pro 52.5mm 6-screw tremolo bridge is examined as a straightforward upgrade for Squier Strat style guitars, especially thin-body models. The bottom line: players who want improved sustain and a solid, direct-replacement fit will appreciate the heavy 36mm solid brass block and full metal diecast construction. The reviewer found it to be an easy swap on thin-body Strats, offering noticeably better sustain and a sturdy feel without changing routing or mounting when the 52.5mm spacing matches the guitar.

Key Features

• 52.5mm string spacing: Matches common Squier Strat style thin-body mounting patterns so the plate lines up with existing screw holes when measurements are confirmed.
• 36mm solid brass block: Adds mass for improved sustain and a fuller low end compared with thinner or cast blocks.
• Vintage steel bent saddles: Provide classic string contact and a familiar tone for players who prefer a vintage Strat feel.
• Full metal diecast construction: Feels robust and well finished, giving confidence in long-term stability and performance.
• 5.8mm threaded tremolo arm: Comes threaded in steel for a secure fit and predictable arm action without extra adapters.
• Includes mounting accessories: The package supplies the screws and hardware needed for installation, simplifying the swap process.

Who It's For

This bridge is best for players with Squier Strat style electric guitars that have the 52.5mm screw spacing and a thin body profile; it is particularly handy for Bullet Strat owners and other thin-body models that accept 6-screw vintage plates. Guitarists seeking a direct replacement that improves sustain and weight without major body modification will find this a sensible upgrade.

Players who should look elsewhere include those with nonstandard screw spacing or routed cavities that require different block heights, and anyone needing modern two-post tremolo systems or locking tremolo features. Always measure your mounting hole spacing and route depth before purchasing to avoid fit issues.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid brass 36mm block delivers improved sustain and a heavier feel compared with lighter blocks.
• Fits 52.5mm 6-screw Strat style mounts when the guitar uses that spacing, making installation straightforward.
• Well finished chrome diecast plate and steel saddles enhance appearance and provide classic tone.
• Includes threaded steel tremolo arm and mounting accessories so the bridge is ready to install.

Cons

• Limited to guitars with 52.5mm screw spacing, so it is not a universal replacement for all Strat-style instruments.
• Vintage 6-screw design may not suit players wanting modern low-profile or locking tremolo systems.
