Probably a ZR, many arm holders have broken. I think Hoshino USA [east coast] now finally has some arm holders. Order through an East coast dealer.

Somewhere around $15 probably but I don't know for sure. If it's under a year old it's covered under your warranty.

Sounds like the arm holder is a particularly big problem on the ZR? Is this a really cheap part?

I was considering a guitar with the ZR trem. It sounds like most people have found it to be a good trem. Is this an indication of poor quality parts on the ZR?

Re: Broken!! (trem arm stuck in holder)


lol!
Just 5 minutes ago the very same thing happened to me
Tis a S 470 DX with the ZR trem and a very sad geetar owner at the moment, was diddlin- making important use of my practice time when
on application of the trem arm it went clunk and is now flopping about all over the place.

Does anyone know how long it takes to order one from Australia and have it installed?
*cry* i needs mah trem for music exam in a few weeks, woe!

Cheers and thanks
