Evening everybody  !

I wanted to change case of my beloved  firebird III 1964 but I'm not sure  about the fact that once the case is closed  the whammy bar is  not triggered  can anybody help about this detail

https://ibb.co/XWhDz4p     this is the original 

 

cheers

It seems a little less deeper than the case for my 2011. I have a Thunderbird bass also & the guitar case at that time was significantly deeper for headstock clearance. Should have clearance for tremolo also.

I ask them for details sending the picture of my guitar and their answer was,  that It will only  trigger the  tremolo if it is not  turn  in the  direction of the  strap button at the end of  the guitar. and that is  fine as you put the tremolo beside the bridge anticlockwise  when you put the guitar at rest , but now it comes  to me another little detail   what about  the banjo tuners , will it be  deep enough for that kind of headstock ?
