Trem arm loose

[Big Al]

my trem arm has become really loose in it's hole. i wouldn't mind it being loose, but it's actually coming away in my hand during use!!

am i being too ruff? :(

There's a little allen key grub screw in the back of the trem for tightening the nylon bushing the arm pops into.

It's possible your screw has dropped out or is really loose.

There's a little screw that holds the washer tight. It's on the bottom end of the trem, near the volume/tone control. It's probably loose.

I had wondered about this as well. I pulled the nylon out and reversed it which made a big difference, but figured I'd have to keep buying replacements (doh) There's no setscrew in my setscrew hole :)
