It's one the 80's bridge plates that was sold with a bridge assembly package.
Someone added the roller saddle (my best guess).

This one came up before, see: http://guitarsbyleo.com/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=122&t=14543&hilit=Custom+bridgeInteresting%20DFV%20bridge.

You will see that the bridge base plate (G&L Custom) is from the BV-100 Vibrato Assembly G&L sold as an aftermarket unit.
The saddles, trem socket and bar, and trem block are not G&L parts.

Hope this helps.
