You could always order it from europe (try germany or another 'euro' using country as the $->£ rate is bad at the moment). The only differance between a wilkinson convertable and a standard strat trem is that you can lock it in possition ('converting' it to a fixed bridge, though I guess you already knew that?). I have no idea who has the paitent, maybe Kahler as their 7300 bridge offers a locking option the 7300 IMHO is a better option than a floyd (see the thread in this section called kahler for more about the 7300).

Mattia Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I've never found a place selling the Wilky convertible at prices that aren't absurd (read: 200 UK pounds or so). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
