We install these units on Tele or Strat Style bodied guitars with fixed bridges. These can not be installed on guitars with tremolos.

All parts are precision machined from 304 stainless steel and 7075-T6 aircraft aluminum. Fine tuning stops and return stops are made of Delrin for quiet operation. We use Oilite bearings and tempered return springs with no visible routing on the guitar body. It has an adjustable spring tension on the strap arm so it is not too loose while hanging on your body and possibly engaging the bender and causing de-tuning while not in use.

McVay Single Benders including Baritone Teles are available in right hand only, with short, medium or long throw depending on the string gauges. Tuning adjustment and stop is recessed and allows complete use of the fingerboard without disturbing the tuning.

In our machine shop we can make parts and install a bender in almost any custom bodied guitar.

Medium throw is standard on all benders unless specified when ordered. All single benders include a strap lock button to install on your strap and you are ready to play. This bender speaks for itself, designed with the player in mind to give you the utmost tone quality with mechanically solid stay in tune reliability.

Note: When drilling and routing for bender installment on guitars with finishes, especially lacquer, the finish can sometimes crack or peel up in the area around the drilling or routing. Also, when laying out the holes for drilling the guitar, we use green 233+ masking tape by 3M. This should have no affect on any guitar that has a quality finish. We cannot claim responsibility for any flaws created in any part of the process.
