Simply the best
The VT1 UltraTrem I have already used with much success on three other Stratocasters.
However, this is my second "VT1 Special" to install in one of my other MIM Stratocasters.
The hardware of the Stainless Steel looks very solid, well made and installation was easy with no modifications.
I also used the various YouTube videos available to see how others installed and experienced this system.
The VT1 Special, once installed, is simply amazing and I am convinced one of the best around.
The main difference between the VT1 Special (brass sustain block) and VT1 UltraTrem (stainless steel block) is the sustain block and price :-)
I like both the VT1 Special and VT1 UltraTrem, however I have not compared them on the same guitar, but both sound fine to my ears. While the UltraTrem is not cheap, the Special is much closer to other vibrato systems on the market. Both do the job perfectly and do not destroy the character and looks of the Stratocaster and stays in tune !!!
Honestly in my opinion worth every Euro spend whether you go for the VT1 Special or VT1 UltraTrem!
Warning: Just made sure to "unlock" the saddles before adjusting the height and intonation !
My only issue with this particular Stratocaster (Fender Vintera 70s Stratocaster - 2021) and the VT1 Special was the time it took to adjust the intonation and for the "g" string I am still not happy, while on my other MIM Stratocaster I had no problems at all.
In any case, definitely a recommendation for those who use the vibrato a lot as it does it all without any tuning issues !

Vega Trem superlative
This is simply the most incredible trem I've ever owned - and I've had all of them. Everything from Floyd to Kahler to Ibanez Edge to Supervee. This is a marvel of engineering, and it's stainless which is great for anti-corrosive purposes. Perfect retrofit into a HB Fusion III and a Fender Strat 59 Reissue. Stability is simply at another level. All the YouTube demos are totally right on - Super Happy!!!!!!
