  CANOPUS has released its new snare drums, the ‘MTR-1450PH-CM’ and ‘MO-1440 CM’.

• Vega-Trem Introduces the Next-Generation Tremolo Unit “VT1 Special” Featuring a Brass Block!

  

  2026/03/27

  Vega-Trem, known for its innovative design that enables Floyd Rose–level dynamic tremolo action without any modification, has released its latest series: the “VT1 Special standard” and “VT1 Special 2-points.”
  At the heart of the unit, a high-quality brass tremolo block has been adopted. Compared to previous stainless steel models, this delivers a warmer tone with enhanced low-mid richness and improved sustain. The remaining components are made from durable stainless steel, achieving both reliability and musical resonance.
  In addition to the “standard” model compatible with 6-screw mounting, the lineup also includes the “2-points” version, ideal for modern guitar specifications. Four types of springs with different tension levels (High / Medium / Low / Extra Low) are included, allowing players to finely adjust the bridge response and arm resistance to suit their preferences—such as how much the bridge lifts during bending.
  
  A must-check for Strat users—experience this new generation of tremolo systems!
