Overview
Headpiece:
The functional advantage of Steinberger’s headless concept dramatically
improves balance, ease of tuning, and tuning stability. All Steinberger instruments feature
the patented DoubleBall™ tuning system that allows string changes in seconds.
Patented 40:1 Direct-Drive Double-Ball Bridge:
Tune it up once and don’t tune
it again until you change strings. Providing micrometer precision and stability, this
revolutionary advance over traditional tuning methods allows string changes in seconds
with no winding or cutting. Just insert the ball end and tune it up.
R-Trem Tremolo:
The Steinberger R-Trem offers the best of both worlds for guitar
players. In the locked position, the R-Trem acts as a fixed bridge. In the un-locked
position, the R-Trem is a fully floating tremolo.
Zero-Fret:
By using a “zero-fret” instead of a traditional nut, intonation is improved. It
also allows for use of varied string gauges because there is no nut slot to widen. Action
at the 1st fret and beyond is more consistent and improved as well.
Fold-Down Leg Rest:
Another patented Steinberger innovation! Only 1/4” thick when
folded, the permanently attached leg rest snaps out instantly to provide exceptional
comfort and balance when playing in the seated position.
