It's a 2700/2710 Killer.

It's pretty cool and just drops straight into a 2 point strat cavity.

It has adjustable radius & string spacing and also individual string height!

Unfortunately the mounting studs/knife edge kinda things didn't come at the same time but hopefully they shouldn't be too long.

In theory I could just use a countersunk head machine screw as a temporary fix but i'll just wait. I love the fact that it has no knife edges to wear out and the replacement stud pieces that it pivots on are $4 each.

Cool trem, weighs 50 lbs. I got one off ebay a couple years back to put in a Heartfield RR, but the block was waaayy too deep. Bummed me out. Falbo has it now.
 
Re: New Bridge Day! Kahler content

It is very hefty! I'm setting myself up for back issues as the guitar is already quite weighty.

I think whammiworld sell shorter blocks but their prices are generally really extortionate on things other than the stud inserts and pivot points etc.

I remember looking, I don't think they had them then or something. I didn't end up keeping the guitar anyway, but I was really pissed that it didn't fit. That trem is just wicked looking.

I've been using one since...since...since before you were born (almost)! LOL!

I have 2 in axes, and 1 for emergencies.
 
Re: New Bridge Day! Kahler content

I put one on this thing, it's a plywood plunker but I had the same model when I was 12. This one was an NOS body I found that had never been even drilled for anything. The trem opening was giant, so the Kahler Killer was one of the few bridges that covered it up. A Floyd would've left an air gap.

I freaked out about this bridge when it came out, it is so intelligently designed, but not the best performing bridge. It's quite stiff.

Looks like my old bolt-on warlock. I have wanted to refurbish it, but have not been able to find a bridge that fits the odd 72mm bridge posts.

Yours looks WAY nicer. How do those EMTY pickups sound in it?
 
Re: New Bridge Day! Kahler content

I've been sitting on a killer for some time. Had it on a peavey nitro for a short time. Its a drop in replacement for the 2550 or whatever the cheapie strat trem kahler made. With the guitar fetish factory blowout, might put it to use!
