Callaham Mexican Standard Stratocaster Steel Tremolo Block

Callaham Mexican Standard Enhanced Tremolo Block, Right Hand

This cold rolled steel trem block replaces the stock zinc block in the following guitars without modification:

• Mexican Standard Series Strats® with 6 pivot bridge and 2-1/16" string spacing
• Mexican Classic Player Strats® with 2 pivot bridge and 2-1/16" string spacing
• Highway 1 Strats® (2006 and later) with 6 pivot bridge, 2-1/16" string spacing, and 2-7/32" mounting spacing
• American Specials with 6 pivot bridge, 2-1/16" string spacing, and 2-7/32" mounting spacing
• 2019 and later Fender Player MIM Strat and Fender Vintera Modified Strat with made in China Ping bridge (stamped with PW29 on the bottom of the block)

These tremolo blocks are precision-made in the United States. Callaham trem blocks are made in USA from heavy, cold rolled steel and weigh a full 10oz (280g), producing incredible sustain, note clarity and response. The string ball ends seat just inside the trem block, as opposed to seating halfway up, which also increases sustain and tone transfer while minimizing the risk of a broken string becoming lodged in the block.  

Note that the metric arm that comes stock on a Mexican Standard Strat® will not work with this block.   Any 3/16" diameter 10-32 thread tremolo arm will work, but we recommend one of the three Callaham virtual pop-in arms for Callaham blocks.
