The Steadfast Stopbar (Tumbled and Black Anodized)

Black Anodized (The "Pro" Stability Solution)

For the modern player who demands black hardware and uncompromising performance, the Black Anodized Steadfast Stopbar is the ultimate hardware evolution. The core innovation of this tailpiece is the reversed-string locking mechanism. By securing the free end of the string at the bridge, you effectively create a "fixed" point at both ends of the scale length. This double-locking setup provides a level of tuning steadiness usually reserved for complex tremolo systems, but in a simple, elegant drop-in stopbar.

The black anodized finish is chemically bonded to the CNC-aluminum, ensuring it won't chip or wear under heavy palm-muting. Because the string is locked at the tailpiece, the energy transfer into the guitar's body is more direct, often resulting in increased sustain and a more "immediate" note attack. It’s a "Set and Forget" solution for touring professionals who need to change strings quickly behind the scenes without sacrificing the rock-solid tuning stability required for the stage. If you're looking to modernize your guitar's mechanical heart without permanent modifications, the Steadfast Black Anodized bar is the answer.
