VegaTrem has unveiled the VT1 Special, a new take on the company’s iconic VT1 UltraTrem blueprint.
The VT1 Special utilizes a new brass block at its core, offering a friendlier price point while retaining all the key attributes that have made VegaTrem an essential choice for so many guitarists: it can be installed while keeping your guitar completely intact, and offers wide tonal range, simplicity and rock-solid tuning.
The VT1 Special is available in standard (6-screw) and 2-point versions in four different premium finishes (Glossy, Gold, Black, Satin) with left-handed options.
‘We at VegaTrem have reverential respect for all those guitarists that have given us so many great moments,” says Isaac Vega, guitarist and VegaTrem founder. “VT1 Special is our way of opening the door of the VegaTrem tremolo spirit to even more players—no drilling, no sanding, no surgery.”
By adopting a premium brass block, the new VT1 Special delivers a distinctive timbral palette that broadens the musical possibilities of the VegaTrem tremolo family—while preserving the hallmark feel and stability players expect from VT1.
The VegaTrem VT1 Special is available starting at $199 USD / €170 and can be purchased from dealers worldwide and at vegatrem.com.
