G&L Store - Tremolo

Post by Liquids »

I see that the G&L online store offers the fulcrum tremolo bridge for sale.

It says "comes complete with chrome plated brass saddles, vibrato arm, springs, spring claw and all mounting hardware. Available in Right and Left hand versions."

However - it doesn't say it comes with the block (or not). And I've seen the blocks available on the store before, but currently they're not listed--or I'm missing it.

If you buy the bridge does the block come with it?

Is it that are blocks are a separate order, and they're just not available for sale right now even though the bridge is?

The DF Vibrato bridge comes complete with the trem block (chrome-plated brass).

There used to be a DFS (Stainless Steel) upgrade kit, which included just the stainless steel saddles and trem block, but that was discontinued this year.
See this reference post: Re: G&L will be offering the saddles and block from the DFS.

I will let one of my contacts know about the missing mention of the trem block in the Ad.

Hope this helps.

My contact at G&L updated G&L On-Line Store description for the DFV bridge:
Dual Fulcrum vibrato kit comes complete with chrome plated brass saddles, chrome plated brass block, vibrato arm, springs, spring claw and all mounting hardware.
It's safe to go ahead and order it now. ;)
