The Towner down tension bar:

- mounts in place of of the stop tailpiece on existing studs.
- rests over the strings, applying the necessary down tension needed per the height adjustment of the studs.
- can be canted by adjusting the height of each stud [VST]. Canting the Towner down tension bar provides even down tension over the strings.
- can be adjusted to whatever height you want and or need to accommodate the action of your strings and bridge height.
- alleviates the guitar owner from drilling holes in the body of the guitar, when installing a Bigsby B3, B11, B30 or B60 vibrato bar.
