Hi all.
New and proud owner of a EBMM Cutlass RS HSS in Charcoal Frost.
I'm looking for advice on sourcing a new trem arm for the Modern trem - which i LOVE as a trem!

This is purely an aesthetics/preference thing as I've already swapped out the pickguard.

Looking for a new arm with a black tip OR maybe even picking up an entire black trem like on the Stealth model.

Where does one find these parts?

Also, is there another brand/size arm that works in this trem?

Many thanks!

A standard black fender tip will fit. Can’t answer the rest of your questions I’m afraid
Hopefully someone will chime in.
I will say that I don’t think you can buy replacement trems in different colours.
You could though get yours powder-coated
 
Thanks! I'm a moron. Didn't even think to check if the arm tip was removable! It certainly is and I've purchased a black tip to replace as well as black vol/tone knobs.

You can buy replacement parts through Music Man sales. I'd call them up and see if they have what your wanting in stock.

All kinds of colours available and most EBMM guitars in the list.
Fit perfectly.

Yes, this is Chandler. I just had three made for an older Axis and they indeed fit perfectly. They can be a bit cranky at times and I have had both positive and not so positive interactions and results over the years but my most recent two were A-OK. Expect a 3 week lead time.
