What is the Reverend Soft Touch Spring designed for?

The Reverend Soft Touch Spring is a specialized tremolo spring engineered to enhance the feel and performance of Bigsby-style tremolos. It replaces your existing spring to provide a smoother, more responsive action, making vibrato easier and more expressive. This upgrade helps guitarists achieve greater control and comfort when using their tremolo system.

How does the Soft Touch Spring improve the feel of my Bigsby tremolo?

This spring is designed to offer a noticeably "softer touch" compared to standard Bigsby springs. It reduces the stiffness of the tremolo arm, allowing for smoother, more fluid vibrato and easier pitch manipulation. This results in a more comfortable playing experience and finer control over your tremolo effects, perfect for subtle shimmers or deep dives.

Which tremolo systems are compatible with the Reverend Soft Touch Spring?

The Reverend Soft Touch Spring is specifically designed as a direct, drop-in replacement for Bigsby-style tremolo systems. While it's optimized for Bigsby units, it can be an excellent option for almost any guitar with a compatible vibrato unit that uses a similar spring design, offering a smoother feel. It is generally not suitable for other distinct tremolo types like Fender-style synchronized tremolos or Floyd Rose systems, which use different spring mechanisms.
