I live just over the German border in Maaseik, Belgium, so it makes sense to me to bring my guitar to Düsseldorf to have it fixed.

I have a Japanese red Hank Marvin Signature Stratocaster. The previous owner modified it and added Kinsman Pickups and a different Bridge / Tremolo Unit.

I've had it for quite a while it's had a great sound, but now there are several minor problems : -

1. The threads on the actual Tremelo Bar seem to have worn, because now the arm is quite loose, I'm not sure if it's the male threads or the female threads. I certainly don't want to change the entire bridge. Can I get a new Tremelo arm fitted that isn't loose? To clarify, the arm moves without actally putting any pressure on the springs

2. I think the Truss needs some minor adjustment, since it was with me in Belize for 3 years (massive hunidity!), there is a bit of fret buzz

3. Perhaps a wire is loose / rusted, because If I take my hand off the strings and the bridge I get an electronic hum.

If I bring the guitar to Düsseldorf, can it be repaired there and approximately how long will it take?
