Decent block with gravity defying trem arm
Fits into a Harley Benton ST20 no problems - infact you can straighten the bridge relative to the stock one. Best part - the whammy bar is not threaded - pop it in and it defys gravity. Total improvement on stock but hey if you buy the cheapest Stratocaster copy to mod then likely to be true ;-). Be careful when you install it - I slipped and scratched part of the back of the guitar. I should have masked it off. It is ok - won't see it in the back. Also I think you need to file some groove for the strings in the saddles - no instructions but it seems like a good idea. Coupled with a new graphtech nut and string trees plus taking your time when stringing up you can bend up and down (I'd you float bridge) and mostly stay in tune. Even with the stock tuners.

Drop in replacement for Squier 50th anniversary Strat (almost!)
I got this to replace the bridge on my 50th anniversary Squier Strat. All holes line up fine, String spacing is perfect and it looks so much nicer than the OEM bridge. Saddle adjustment allows for nice low action. All good - except, the block is a short one, designed for contemporary Squier bodies, which are thinner, so the springs catch inside the back cavity. Had I thought a little more, and read the description fully, this would have been obvious. Problem solved by ordering the appropriate 40mm block. Now it all works and plays like a dream.

Excellent
I really do not have much to say about this tremolo apart from it is absolutely fantastic, I took the tremolo system of my fender strut and replaced it with this one I had some Highwood saddles and I changed them and this together is absolutely fantastic.The best part is the tremolo arm is held in place with the grub screw in the block and you contain this as much as you like on the fender the tremolo arm screws in and it wobbles all over the place you have to purchase a spring to put into the hole of the fender tremolo arm all to make it usable but this Wilkinson bridge had absolutely no problem whatsoever I've been playing my guitar with a floating trem with this bridge and it is not yet lost, Tune

Good value and looks good
Have bought 3 of these in total to replace the cheap starter strat tremolo. The zinc block could be better (at a price) but is chunky and much better than the skinny blocks on most I've dismantled. Seems to be an improvement and looks great imo too. Push in trem arm is a real bonus over the usual floppy screw in arrangement

Easy to fit, and the trem works so much better than the threaded fender counterpart.
Bought it to replace the one on my new Lake placid blue squier bullet strat. The one that came with it had a very loose thread, and bending the whammy bar had little effect. This was super easy to fit, and now I can dive bomb on the trem like a good-guy.
