Please help me identify my trem-block.

[Phil]

I am looking to buy one of these trem-blocks from GFS for my AXL SRO. There are two sizes, USA spaced and the 10.5mm spaced ones.

Here:
USA Spaced Trem-block
10.5mm Spaced Trem-block

The thing about this bloody AXL SRO, is that the bridge is unconventional. Normal strat bridges do not fit, in fact, no bridge can replace it as of yet because of the weird screw placements.

It measure roughly 10.5mm from the center of one string-hole to another. So I'm thinking maybe getting the 10.5mm spaced trem-block. However, I just want to be very sure.

As seen, it measure 21mm from one trem-block screw-hole to another. Those are the screw-holes for the trem-block itself.

I would really appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!

If someone has a MIM standard strat, use your block to compare to theirs.

If the holes line up correctly, you're good to order the 10.5mm GFS block.

If they don't line up, you'll need to purchase the GFS trem assembly for 10.5mm.

Just make sure your trem mounting holes to the guitar body is 52.5mm as well from E to E.

Hi,

I know that comparing it directly is the best way. However, I do not have access to a MIM or MIA strat for the time being. So until I've the chance to do so, I'm posting this question here so that maybe someone who knows their measurements can help me out.

Dimensions won't help, you need to compare the spacing between the 2 sets of holes as well.

You can try bringing it down to a guitar shop and ask them for some help.

It won't fit MIA strats, but highway 1s will use the same block as MIM standards.

Anyone with a highway 1 or a MIM standard strat will be able to help you.

Just remove the back plate and eyeball it will do.
