Attaching the tremolo arm

1. The tremolo arm employs a snap-in/snap-out design. Hold

the corner of the tremolo arm, and press it fi rmly into the arm

socket of the base plate.

2.

The tightness of the tremolo arm attachment can be

adjusted by adding or removing Tefl on washers. Using a larger
number of washers will make the attachment tighter, and removing all
the washers will leave the arm free. The Tefl on washers can be added

or removed diagonally via the slit.

Adjusting the tremolo attachment angle

The tremolo attachment angle is adjusted by changing the
balance between the string tension and the tension of the
tremolo springs installed on the back of the guitar body.
You’ll obtain the optimal performance by adjusting this so
that the tremolo is approximately horizontal to the surface of
the guitar body.

1. With the guitar tuned correctly, check the

angle of the tremolo.

2. If the tremolo is tilted toward the front, insert a

Philips screwdriver through the slit in the tremolo

spring cover on the back of the body, and tighten

the screw to increase the tension of the tremolo

springs.

3. If the tremolo is tilted toward the rear, loosen

the screw to decrease the tension of the

tremolo springs.

※ The tremolo angle adjustment will aff ect the tuning,

because the balance of tension between the strings and
the springs will change each time you adjust the tension
of the tremolo springs. You’ll need to tune repeatedly
while making this adjustment.

Tremolo springs

When the guitar is shipped from the factory, it is set up with three tremolo springs installed in parallel. If the
balance of tension between the strings and the tremolo springs has changed signifi cantly, such as when
you’ve switched string gauges or are using a dropped tuning, you may

need to change the number of tremolo springs or change the way in
which they are installed.

1. Use a Philips screwdriver to remove the spring lock.

2. If you want to increase the tension, install the outer two

tremolo springs diagonally.
