HOLY SH*T MY ZR BROKE!

I was dropping the action on my Ibanez S and as I'm turning the bridge stud the stud cracked in half.. I'm not sure what to do.. I don't know how to get it out? What should I do?

And are these the part I should order to replace them?

I´d say you only need a new stud, you could turn it with some pliers to take it off

Not even that. Take the bridge off the stud and the pressure on it drops to the point you can take it out with your fingers.

And give Rich a call for a new stud.

Back ordered ;/

well.. Theres not enough of the stud left to use pliers.. I've already tried. And it ended up cracking more.

And guitarbizarre do you mind expanding? I've tried to pull the bridge off but the studs firmly in place.

And Rich how long do you think it'll take to order the parts? :/

The nut and washer are on the top that broke off. Nothing is holding that side on. The bearing collar/wing will pull off the stud.

I have a hard enough time finding out when guitars are due in.

Drill a hole and use and easy out.

AnDr3wYoN · #9 11-29-2008, 11:32 PM

Should it easily slide off? Cause the bridge has wiggle.. but it doesn't come off.

Rich · #10 11-29-2008, 11:34 PM

Not at pitch.

AnDr3wYoN · #11 11-29-2008, 11:56 PM

Alright thanks. Well I took out the other stud and wiggled it out. Thanks

I would have said no problem, but it seems you already managed to remove the bridge. Ah well. If you have any other questions gimme a shout through PM.
