perfect for tremolo equipped guitars - cheap and functional
I play strats so i need to reduce any friction and improve tuning stability with tremolo use.
Although the wheels rotate, there isn?t any bearing system so a lubricant is needed to improve performance. Not on the strings but between the shaft of the wheels and the base. I use nut sauce or hair pomade (!) for the extra mojo. I think that it?s a bit taller than a traditional string tree, making the angle at nut smoother. This helps if you use the tremolo a lot.
It looks a little bulky and the finish is not perfect, but for me it?s fine.
A fine useful product. Highly recommended.

Not as big as i thought, luckly!
The quality is better than that i thought. I really wish i could place some pictures on thomann to show you all! The surface is really smooth and better on the pictures. The roller goes smoothly and keeps stable. For some guitars the screw might me a bit too tall, be sure to measure the thickness of your headstock otherwise the screw will go right through! For the people who need the measurements: the screw is 1,5 cm the string roller is 1,2 cm in total. I would recommend this string roller as an great upgrade! It keeps your strings much more in tone than a average string pusher and its not as big as i thought. I also heard from friends who used this roller, that its great for tremelos too, but thats up to you all to find out!
Pros
Smooth
Good measurements
Rolls fine
Good tonation
Keeps in place
Can be placed anywhere where needed
Cons
Screw might be a bit too tall
In short: stable, smooth, good string roller from a well known brand Göldo. Would recommend this for anyone who wants something special on their guitar or simply better quality.

This is what you need on your Strat!
If you have tunning stability problems when using your vibrato bar on your strat you need this, and a good lubed nut. There is no piece of gear that is going to make your guitar better for a cheaper price.

Dew it
You only have to look at roller string trees to see that they make more sense than the stiff ones. Less friction means better tuning stability, and that's just science. Cheap and effective

Goldo Roller String Tree CH
I am using these string trees on my Harley Benton HB JA-60 OW and my Harley Benton TE Black Paisley guitars.
Pros: Well finished product with free rolling tree heads. Mounting screw provided that fits perfectly with appropriate tightness in the original hole location of the stock trees. Price is very low.
Cons: None.
Easy to install for those who have experience working on guitars and easy enough for a first timer to have great success.

A must for every guitar with string trees
If your guitar has the usual, cheap T shaped string tree and sometimes is difficult to keep in tune - change it for this one if NEED a string tree. I works perfectly and helps to keep your guitar in tune.
