Question for Jon about EBMM Steve Morse

[Tokkes]

Hi Jon,

when browsing through the FAQ's on the EB site, I came across some info to thighten the trem arm of the standard EB tremolo systems. Now, when I do the dive-bombing stuff with my Steve Morse (which is not the usual EB tremolo system I think), I can't see any allen screw to thighten it. So my question is, and yet again sorry if this has been asked a zillion times before, how can I tighten this trem arm? Furthermore, is it possible with the Steve Morse model to remove the trem arm??

Since I live in Belgium and the MusicMan guitars are very hard to find over here, I'm pretty sure that the best way to get this info is through the forum.

Many thanks in advance


Cheers, Tom

If you push down on the arm, and the rear of the bridge comes up, look behind there, you'll see a little allen key screw, and thats it.

Yes you can remove the arms on Ernie ball bridges.

I know my name ain't Jon, but l thought l'd answer this question.

The Morse trem is a Floyd Rose, and the arm is tightened on the side where the arm goes in. 1.5 mm allen wrench.

You can remove the arm from underneath. Take the trem cover off, and you will see a small bolt at the end of the trem. I don't remember offhand what size wrench it takes...Maybe 2.5 mm?
