Broken Trem Bar


Hi guys, i was trying to set a new spring on my RG7620, and finally I tried to lift up the bridge using the tremolo bar, and WHAP! Shazam! It snapped!!! so part of the broken piece is in the trem hole. so what to do next guys? buying another trem bar is obvious.. but how do i get the broken piece of the bar out of the hole?

thanks

I think you can just loosen the holder on the bottom side of the bridge and it should fall out or be easier to pull out

Unscrew the spring screw at the tip of the holder and push it out with your 1.5mm allen wrench [unless it's an Edge Pro where you'll have to find something else to push it out with]
