Dive Down to the Deck with Gotoh’s GE1996T

Arm your axe with shrieking dive-bombs and screaming squeals with Gotoh’s GE1996T — a world-class double-locking tremolo system that performs with rock-solid tuning stability and a smooth, even-keeled action. This system includes everything you need to upgrade your 6-string’s existing double-locking trem, including locking studs, a spring holder, springs, screws, and a custom set of hex keys. Every inch of this world-class tremolo is crafted to the highest standards in Japan, from the machined brass trem block to the steel saddles to the hardened steel baseplate. Plus, Sweetwater’s modding masters appreciate how straightforward the GE1996T is to install — it’s just about a direct replacement for most guitars that utilize a rather ubiquitous double-locking tremolo system.

Gotoh: Japan’s leading hardware purveyor since 1960

Founded in 1960, Gotoh reigns as Japan’s perpetual champion of machine head manufacturing. The company’s seeds were planted in 1950 when Masao Gotoh’s research lab began producing strings for violins. Mid-century disruptions in music technology prompted a pivot to guitar hardware, and by 1960, Gotoh was ascendant in the guitar market. Today, dozens of worldwide brands finalize instruments using Gotoh tuners, tailpieces, and beyond, arming players with reliable string performance and impeccable tuning stability. While Gotoh aftermarket parts can be difficult to procure in the United States, Sweetwater’s direct relationship offers an attractively wide range of Gotoh parts. Here, you can also find aesthetics and technical features that fuel your vision, spanning vintage-inspired favorites to modern designs.
