Hello All,

A mexico strat was brought to me
with a broken floyd rose tremolo.

The threaded boss that the arm
threads onto has become seperated
from the tremolo frame,

Any suggestions on a repair method?

Thanks.

Cheers.

If i remember right it fixes onto the base by way of a hex screw next to the tremblock. All i can think is if thats bust buy a new one their cheap enough. My local shop ordered a load of floyd parts in for me years ago.
picture of exactly where the break is would help too mate

Hello Nikininja,

Seems like a complete
replacement floyd will
be about $70 for his model {not an original Floyd}

Any how thanks.

PS. no set screw that I could spot.

Cheers.

Hello Nikininja and All,

Took the bridge to a plumber
and had it silver soldered.

Worked great but bridge is
discolored like a Harley tailpipe.

Another chapter of the
relicing process.

Cheers.
