Almost new. Three types of spacers are included, allowing you to adjust the tension to your preference. Spacer heights: 1.5 / 3.2 / 4.8 mm Screw size: 2.4X10mm Did you know that the 3rd string of a Stratocaster has the weakest tension? Because of this, the open 3rd string is prone to issues such as a muddy sound at the nut, unclear definition, and poor sustain. Some of you may have a vague feeling that "the open 3rd string isn't as clear as the other strings." The Triple String Retainer solves these problems by adding tension to the 3rd string! Moreover, it requires no modification and can be easily installed with just a screwdriver! *Please loosen the strings before installation.
