Discontinuation of the Strat-Style Press Saddle

Thank you very much for your continued support of KTS products.

As previously announced, due to the withdrawal of our partner factory from press-forming operations, we are currently unable to manufacture the titanium base bridge plate “WB1” using the press-forming process. In addition, we have also been unable to produce our Strat-style press saddles, which utilize a similar manufacturing method.

We had been exploring the possibility of resuming production with a new press-forming contractor. However, as we have not been able to find a contractor that meets our standards for both quality and cost, we regret to announce that we have decided to discontinue production and supply of these products.

Sales of the PR-04 (string pitch 10.8mm) and PR-14 (string pitch 10.4mm) have already been discontinued, and all remaining models will also be discontinued once current inventory is sold out.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disruption this may cause to our customers and distributors, and we kindly ask for your understanding and continued support.
