Callaham Tremolo Blocks & Trem Arms

Callaham Steel Trem Blocks

Made to original specifications by Callaham Guitars, these tremolo blocks are precision-made in the United States. Callaham trem blocks are made 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.

Made in the USA.

This block fits the following Strats® with 2-7/32" string spacing without modification:

  • Fender® Stratocasters® made from 1954 to 1969

Made to Pre-CBS original specifications by Callaham Guitars, these tremolo blocks are precision-made in the United States and are exact replicas of the tremolo blocks used in the original 50's Stratocasters®.

Mexican II Enhanced Tremolo Block, Right Hand New!

This trem block replaces the stock zinc block in the 2019 and later Fender Player MIM Strat and Fender Vintera Modified Strat.

These guitars were shipped with one of two different bridges, so before purchasing this block you must examine the bottom of your existing tremolo block to determine which bridge you have.

If your block has three distinct ejector circles on the bottom and is stamped in one of the circles with a number 1 or 2 (see below), you have a made in Mexico 2 pivot bridge, and this Mexican II block is the correct replacement block.

If your block is stamped on the bottom with PW29 (see below), you have a made in China Ping bridge and this block will not fit your guitar. You should instead buy the Mexican Standard Enhanced Block.
