Built to match the modern two-post Fender tremolo mount already on this guitar. Should bolt in without any extra drilling.
Why we say this
Wilkinson's VS100 is built to the modern Fender 2-point mounting spec (post-2008 era), matching this guitar's 52.4mm string spacing and two-post mounting. Widely used as a direct budget upgrade for Player and American series Strats alike.
A Fender-spec tremolo option, but this guitar's exact spacing has not been confirmed to match precisely. Measure before ordering.
Why we say this
This guitar's bridge measures close to but not exactly Fender's standard 52.4mm modern spacing, so an exact match to this Fender-spec replacement has not been confirmed.

Drilling
Do not assume Stratocaster tremolo parts fit here, this guitar's vibrato is a proprietary Mustang-family design with different mounting entirely.
Why we say this
The Dynamic Vibrato uses a proprietary mounting and mechanism specific to the Mustang/Jaguar/Jazzmaster family, and does not share Stratocaster tremolo mounting despite both being tremolo systems.

This bridge is built for the modern 2-point mounting pattern, but this guitar actually uses a 6-screw vintage-style mount instead. It will not bolt onto the existing holes.
Why we say this
This is a modern 2-point tremolo, but this guitar's bridge is confirmed to use a 6-screw vintage-style mounting pattern instead, with 56.4mm screw spacing rather than the 2-point family's narrower mounting. A 2-point bridge will not bolt onto this guitar's existing screw holes.
What fits instead
Not compatible
This is a right-handed tremolo. The body underneath is routed asymmetrically for the block, so this does not fit a left-handed guitar without modifying the body.
Why we say this
This is a right-handed tremolo assembly. The body routing on a left-handed Strat is genuinely asymmetric to fit the block and arm on the correct side, not a mirrored cutout, so a right-handed bridge assembly does not physically fit without body modification.
