Pro String Trees / String Guides / Retainers
Available in Black, Chrome, or Gold — Set of 2
Upgrade or replace your guitar’s string trees with this clean, modern-style set designed for American Ultra, Elite, Professional-style, and similar electric guitar builds.
These low-profile string guides help maintain proper string break angle across the nut, improving tuning stability while keeping the headstock looking sleek and professional. Perfect for custom builds, replacement projects, upgrades, or matching your hardware color theme.
For best results, pre-drill pilot holes before installation. Do not force screws into hard maple or finished headstocks, as this may cause chipping, screw breakage, or finish damage.
These are aftermarket replacement/upgrade parts designed to fit many American Ultra, Elite, Professional-style and similar electric guitars. Please confirm measurements before ordering if installing on a non-standard or import-style neck.

Testimonial from Ice – Shop Supervisor & Tone Inspector
“Hi, I’m Ice. I may not have opposable thumbs, but I do have an ear for tone and a nose for quality wood.
Every day I patrol the shop, sniffing out bad solder joints and ensuring every guitar smells like success (and maybe a little beef jerky).
Mike built me a custom dog-sized Telecaster once. I couldn’t play it... but I licked it. It passed inspection.
So if you're wondering whether to buy from Carparelli Guitars, here's my advice: Sit. Stay. Buy it. 5 paws out of 5.
Now please excuse me while I nap in a pile of tonewood.”
