The "Chimemaster®" S-Style Tremolo/Vibrato System

 

At first glance the Glendale "Chimemaster" appears to be something that predates the original 1954 tremolo/vibrato system, however, at second glance it's very much a new breakthrough, where old meets new and the old is the new. Machined from a solid block of stainless steel, this plate was not bent or formed. The combination of my stainless steel top plate, brass saddle set, and brass block makes for one of the most beautiful chiming tones you will ever hear. I made the plate a little thinner than a stock s-style top plate. The thinner plate and flat bottom will insure more contact with the block giving more acoustical sustain and much better tone.

 

The "Chimemaster®" Brass Block & Brass Saddle Set

Glendale brass block, "Chimemaster" top plate, and tele-style brass saddles. Tele players this is the combination for you. My brass block gives the guitar an acoustical flavor much more Tele-like adding warmth and chime. With the addition of my 1/4" brass saddles this combination brings together a smooth acoustical balance of tone.

The "Chimemaster®" Steel Block & Steel Saddle Set

Glendale steel block, "Chimemaster" top plate, and tele-style steel saddles. Enhancing the traditional Strat tone. My cold rolled steel block is a high grade steel more dense and heavier like the originals, this adds to sustain and tone. My 1/4"cold rolled steel saddles have more mass than the originals, which gives the guitar a much fuller, rounded, rich balance of tone.
