callaham bridges

[zac89]

Hey guys, i'm thinking of getting a callaham bridge for my strat, and as far as i can see i have to ship it straight from the US, so my question is, is there any place in singapore that sells callaham bridges? and if they don't is UPS shipping reliable? haha cause this will be my first time shipping something in

oh and yes, i also don't mind other bridges as well, it just has to be 2-16" string spacing and mounting.

it's terribly hard to find a bridge man.. ugh

Get the Gotoh Traditional Tremolo, it has a steel block and the string spread is the same as the Callaham. It shouldn't cost more than SGD90.00 and should be available either at Zen or TYMUSIC. The results are the same as I've tried both and the Callaham after shipping would cost in excess of SGD200.00. Just remember to ask for the steel block model as Gotoh has several models and the cheaper ones have a zinc block. A zinc block will not react to the magnet. If you're still bent on getting the Callaham besides direct from Callaham you can get it online at www.specialtyguitars.com.

Yes i can say that the gotoh steel would be similar to the callaham. I used to have the callaham trem. IMO its not worth the money, the shipping etc... Its all hype. Just settle for a simple gotoh the magic in your strat lies in other factors too!

I ordered a callaham block from usa more than 5 years ago, it made more difference that changing pickups. I really like it a lot!

You can get it from this local store:

You can also order from here:

Sometimes ordering overseas is still cheaper than buying here even after you factor in the shipping cost. I've ordered so many items from usa including a strat neck, no issues at all.
