Whammy Bar Needed

Post by zozoe »

for my early 90's 3-bolt Legacy Strat, & what mm width would I require? It's a push-in & is secured by a set-screw on the trem's bridge.
Many thanks

You can get the trem bar from the G&L On-Line Store, here is the link (link will open in a new tab): replacement-vibrato-arm-pre-2005.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Craig,,,, Since there's 2 sizes, I'll measure the 'mm'... it's my 1st & only G&L, & I just got it today, minus whammy, but with hardshell G&L case....
I've got spare whammys all over to try, & my guitar won't be ready to play until it's got its whammy on!!

While we're at it, with my serial number, how can I get the lowdown on the specs of my new baby,, like all the different woods used....?
Thnx, Kenny ॐ

I included the link to the specific trem bar for your guitar.
Used on all US G&L Dual Fulcrum Vibratos from the late 1980s through approximately 2005.
Contact Memo Romero [G&L Service Manager] and ask him to look up the serial number in the factory logs to get the details of the build
including the completion date. His email address is repairs@bbesound.com.
