^ Thanks Jim.

Opinions always appreciated. Even more so from those more experienced than me willing to take the time to help out and offer those opinions.

I have about a years experience noodling and fiddling with guitars, nothing serious though until I decided to get off my arse and start proper lessons recently.

Always looking for the best bang for my buck that I can and wanting the best from what I have. Not looking at spending packets of dosh however. I just wondered if a string tree change was a cheap but worthy change to make my strat my user friendly.

Thanks again for the info!

The further away the string trees the looser the feeling which effects the fretting and bending. For tuning the string has the same tension from nut to bridge but the string tree changes the ability to move the string on the fret board.

Im about to update my Strat with new string trees, probably going to end up trying the Graphtech ones.
