Floyd Rose RT400N Rail Tail Tremolo Narrow Nickel: Drop-in Stability and Tone for Your Strat

The Floyd Rose RT400N Rail Tail Tremolo Narrow Nickel retrofit system is made for players who want more tuning stability and improved sustain from their Strat-style guitars. This model gives you dive-only, full-contact action that feels like a hardtail but lets you explore tremolo techniques. Installation is straightforward for most standard 6-point Strat bridges—no routing or permanent changes needed. The Rail Tail offers modern playability with solid brass construction for reliable performance in demanding settings.

Standout Features: Unique Rail and Brass Build

What stands out about the RT400N is its innovative rail-based pivot, which removes the wear and friction of traditional knife edges. With the bridge and saddles CNC-machined from brass, the result is a richer tone and longer sustain. You'll notice improved energy transfer and tuning reliability every time you play.

Effortless Installation and Compatibility

Fitting the RT400N in place of your existing 6-point Strat tremolo is simple, using the original screw holes and block cavity for a true drop-in fit. For some 2-point Strat models, the supplied guide helps with minor drilling to retrofit the bridge.

• String Spacing: 52.4 mm (2-1/16") — made to suit modern Strat guitars.
• The bridge uses a full brass build, including saddles, for increased sustain and warmth in your tone.
• Finish: Nickel — classic and built to last.

Performance Upgrade for Expressive Play

The RT400N gives you up to 15° more dive compared to typical Strat bridges, unlocking advanced tremolo effects with greater tuning stability. Its rail allows the plate to move smoothly, so open strings keep their pitch even when you bend others. Roller saddles further enhance vibration transfer for better sustain and note clarity.

• Dive Range: Up to 15° deeper than typical Strat trems — for dramatic tremolo effects.
• Roller saddles help reduce friction, promoting tuning reliability during heavy use.
• The slotted block and tapered string holes simplify setup and improve saddle contact.
