Andy and Trev dive into the story behind Wilkinson’s newly reissued hardware. They unpack the return of a legendary rolling nut design tied to iconic vibrato work.

Trev shares how the original Wilkinson roller nut was created to eliminate string friction and keep guitars in tune under heavy vibrato use.
The design famously found its way onto Fender Strat Plus models and became closely associated with Jeff Beck’s expressive playing style.
Now reissued by Wilkinson due to strong player demand, the unit returns as both a functional upgrade and a piece of guitar history.
