Cheerz Rich, But I think it's a little past that now...The hardened steel inserts on the trem are worn out and it's generally in a well used state. Also the locking nut is so worn that the open B buzzes like mad. So it needs a new trem kit altogether. I like the hardware and Lo-Pro on the 7DBK...Brushed Aluminium? I'd like to get hold of that if I can and replace the pink pickups and knobs with green to match the vine.... What do you guys think?

Nothing that couldn't be salvaged, but I do have new Lo Pro's in stock too

I broke about 7 arms in my old GRX with a standard trem. And the arm holer was so wallered out that the bar had more play/wiggle in it than it did actual whammying range.

Looks like we're all just "stupid" and "idiotic" with no respsct for the instruments in our hands.

That is just plain stupid, and obviously the person is playing without any respect for the intrument in his hands. Getting into the music and playing hard is one thing, but being a retard and jerking the bar so hard it breaks off is idiotic.

Well I guess steve vai, eddie van halen, yngwie malmsteen *well maybe yngwie* and dimebag darrell are stupid idiots.

i bet yngwie is more careful, he probly has vintage trem bars made of melted down swedish war badges tipped with ivory.
Then again its yngwie, so he probly snaps them, throws em away and demands new ones even older, made of better metal, and with more dead elephant, and for free.
