Why is my BFPs trem arm a screw-in bar? - its the exact brid


The JPM is a push in trem arm, as it should be and as i thought the BFP was supposed to be - but the BFP is a screw in arm! *This is strange, its not a 555 bridge, its an Edge Lo Pro, but has a screw in arm..any one have any ideas?

It works fine too....

unfortunately, someone replaced the "arm holder" from the standard edge/lopro with a floyd rose type to accomidate a screw in arm... glen

Or...the arm bushing is loose and missing the lock nut. That would cause the whole arm bushing to unscrew.

Sounds like it could be a Hondo bridge-I think you should burn it, Shawn! *(Or just give it to me!)

I had the same problem on my old Radius with a Lo Pro Edge with a screw in. *I got the pop-in rpl parts from Custom Guitar Wares and it works great. *cost on parts was about $15 without shipping.
