Le trémolo Tru-Loc signé Godin a été conçu pour une stabilité accrue au niveau de l’accordage des cordes tout en étant très aisé. Il est possible d’ajuster le positionnement du bras de trémolo selon vos préférences par un simple ajustement. Regardez la vidéo pour en savoir davantage !

Godin builds great guitars. I have only one in my collection, but love it.

Thanks! Glad that you enjoyed the demo. It was fun to do.

I have 3 Godin guitar and prefer them to my "well known name" guitars that were 3 times the cost. Gonna be selling them soon. Thanks.

[@igorlealmusic]

Same here!

Can you dive bomb with these tremolos and still stay in tune?

[@mathieubacon9867]

Bonjour Godin, merci pour vos sublimes guitares! J'ai une session de 2012, est-ce possible que je n'aie pas ce système sur mon modèle?

[@jlepre752]

I have a Soildac and the bar is very wobbly. If I tighten the set screw will this fix it? If so what size allen wrench do I need?

HELLO
I HAVE A GODIN LGX SA AND I HAVE A TREMOLO BAR. BUT IT TURN ALWAYS TURN AROUND. HOW CAN I FIX IT OR DISASEMBLE

[@garceau7360]

Would this work on the Radium Rn Carbon Black?

I NEED A TREM ARM FOR A PROGRESSION SERIES ... Where can I order one .. I am in Canada

[@Fender5621]

Looks like a nice system. I have a Godin XTSA, which I love, but whose tremolo is unusable because the actual arm has so much play. I wish I could easily tighten the arm like apparently you can do with this new system. As of now I had to block it off.

[@TosiekDegutis]

Yeah, I had same problem with tremolo on some of my guitars, try to wrap dental floss around the arm, experiment with the amount of floss. I don't have problem with too much arm play anymore, but tremolo arms are very stiff now, no play at all.

[@nicolasroy6654]

Someone know how to unlock the tremolo. I want mine to go both way push and pull. Someone have an idea or a tutorial for me. thanks!!!!

Not sure if it works with a Godin Trem. But I use the simple technique shown in the video below to float my ultra-cheap JayTurser and it work perfectly. Some oil on the nuts and it keep it tune well enough: th-cam.com/video/p2jBWd4dVvM/w-d-xo.html
There is other video that can give some other trick useful to know. Like lowering the action a little bit before because your bridge will be higher floating...

[@ESP95]

I have this guitar and the bridge is raised up from the wood and I don't know how to fix it so that it looks like a sample in your video. I know that I have to tighten the screws on the back that keep the springs in place, but I don't like the look of the guitar.

[@justarandomguy3071]

Godin! Why havent you bought Super Vee or Babicz yet? 🤔 Then you will have the best tremolos on the best guitars.

[@georgescarlett2320]

This Tremelo Block must be a newer design. The one I'm working on has NO SUCH ARM ADJUSTMENT????????

[@mikegeeguitarman8991]

My Godin session sounds great but absolutely will not stay in tune. That is without the trem. Start using the trem and it is beyond a nightmare. It goes way way out after two or three uses.

[@darklord8163]

I have the same guitar
