Angle Adjustment for the Tremolo Unit

Adjust the spring screw, located on the back side of the guitar body, so that the tail piece section of the tremolo unit is parallel to the body.

If the string gauge or the position of the spring hook is changed, adjustment of the tremolo unit's angle (adjust- ment of the amount of floating) will be necessary.

1.Remove the four (4) cover fixing screws located on the back side of the guitar body and remove the cover.

2.Adjust the two (2) spring screws uniformly, so as to maintain good balance, and adjust so that the tail section is parallel.

If the tail section is raised

Turn the spring screw to the right (clockwise).

If the tail section is lowered

Turn the spring screw to the left (counter-clockwise).

3.Adjusting will affect string pitch so please check and tune the strings after adjusting the tailpiece.
