Loosen bigsby arm??

[Wild.Kim]

Hi guys.

Just bought wildkat royale few days ago.

It sounds really nice i loved it.

Here's my problem

After i used bigsby arm few times (b70), it became loose, never like before.

How do i fix this?

hey WK......you'll have to compress & remove the spring, tighten the nut that's on the stud, then re-install the spring.

if you don't want to do all that, sometimes slipping a nickel into the cup under the spring, will take the slack out.

edit, on looking again, the nickel trick won't work on yours...sorry, gotta tighten that nut, maybe install a thicker washer too.

 

almost forgot.....Welcome to the Forum !!

Use a "lock washer".

If you can find the appropriate size "keps" nut with a "star" washer, the nut and screw assembly may stay in place better than the standard, supplied nut.
