how can i keep my trem bar on my RG570 with an edge to stay in 1 spot, it keeps sliding down and when i try to get it back up i always hit the volume knob. Is there a way to secure it in place?

Nail polish wears off. There's another trick that I use: If you have any ziploc bags or D'Addario string pouches, cut a circle about the size of a quarter. Pull the bar out. Center the plastic over the bar holder and insert the bar into the plastic. It goes in tough, but it won't go anywhere.

Nail polish was OK with me but lately I do what rory does. I cut out circles from plastic grocery bags (really thin ones) & lay that over the trem bar hole before the trem is in, then push the bar into the hole along with the plastic. It pretty much works only one time because it shreds the plastic up. So I just make a bunch of these little plastic circles at once.
