Hi guys! I’ve received my 2015 Majesty yesterday and it’s badass. But I wanna know if this is normal. I can see the bottom of the stud bushing coming out through the trem cavity. I have seen a few having the same issue but I don’t know if it is a problem or just design. Thanks!

I don't recognise anything that looks like a stud bushing. To my eye it looks like the wood showing where the paint has not reached properly.

That's probably one of those cosmetic things which don't affect tone or playability and you never would worry about if you wouldn't have noticed it. I don't think the bushings need those 2 or 3 mm for a tight fit.

Hi! I’ve been watching other majestys and I’ve noticed that it’s common on the first ones. 2014 to 2017. After that they started to make the trem cavity in a different way so you don’t see the bushing.

Are you sure the Majesty trem posts have bushings? They look like the ones on other EBMM guitars, which are direct wood mount screws.

Yes. This is a pick from a guy on Music Man’s facebook group. He had a big trouble but this is a bushing.
