No need for them. The ball end gets clipped off and the string is locked to the saddle with the saddle clamps.
That’s why it is called a “double-locking” system. Both ends of the string are locked.

Yup. That’s a standard Kahler approach. Washburn appropriated that same approach with the Wonderbar.
The closer to the nut and more inline with the string the better. The fact that you don’t notice the strings pulling sharp when you lock it is a good sign.

Y’know...that’s interesting.
I’ve come to really like the Strat volume knob right where it is. This struck me awhile back when I was playing a set and I wanted to roll the volume back a hair for a quieter passage. I didn’t really even have to leave playing position to make the adjustment. I just sort of rolled the knob a touch with the pinky on my picking hand.
I remember thinking at the time, “Wow. That was easy. Now, I know why that knob is right there.”
Ever since then, I’ve really liked the Strat volume knob location. It’s never bothered me before, but I went from being indifferent to the location to preferring the location.
