Falcon Tremolo: Where to get one with double sust. block?

Post by Mikkele »

Hello guys,
I can not find any information in the web if one can still get a Falcon Tremolo and where from?
But is has to be the one with two sustainblocks.
Someone knows? Any ideas?
Thanks and best regards -
Michael

you should even be familiar with this tremolo.

Meanwhile I have checked it and it is a great thing as it works with 2 sustainblocks.
Its not my preferred method to use such a bridge but for all those people having trouble with tuning stability it is great and probably one of the best which exist in my opinion.
But it's apprearently only available directly from Blade guitars for about 300 bucks.
A couple of money but its worth the price.

The Falcon Tremolo has never been used on any G&L instruments built at the Fullerton factory.
I think you have confused Leo Fender's Dual Fulcrum Vibrato System with the Falcon Tremolo. For details on the
G&L DFV and DFS Vibrato Systems, see: The G&L Dual-Fulcrum vibrato.

Hope this helps.
