Hi.
I got my 2012 Custom Deluxe Stratocaster a few days ago and it has the pop-in tremolo arm. My question is, just how hard do I have to push in order to pop in and pull out the tremolo arm? I find it hard to pop it in and pull it out. I wonder if this is normal. I do not want to break anything.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Yest it is very hard to push in , I brake some strings with this . There is an adjustment ,allen screw on the tremolo block . Push the arm down and you'll see the allen screw on the block.

Hi.
Thanks for your reply. I will try to mount the tremolo arm several times to see if it gets better, if not I'll check with the guitar shop where it was purchased.

Thanks for your reply. I removed the back cover to the tremolo block, where I can see two allen screws on the block. Do you know the size of these, because I have to buy allen wrench?
