    Yes. Even the MIM bridge with big steel block is a great upgrade.

    Yup then mash that bin button!!
    Has he still not grabbed his purple one he wanted?
    Only took a couple weeks for my candy blue to come in.

    And should I do that bridge on the one from you?
    Honestly, it stays in tune just fine for me.

    Yea, I bought it.

    That type of trem just wasn't meant to be dive bombed.

    That guitar I sold you stayed in tune really well. From everything I read, the tuners and the bridge were the worst. The ruby red one that I have, I switched the tuners to vintage Schallers because the old tuners had slack in them.

    Except the Schallers were the 90 deg instead of the 45 deg like the tuners that are on it.
    So I tossed the ruby in a corner till I could re drill the holes.

    I'll let you know if this fender mim trem hold tune any better. If anything, the block replacement is an upgrade from the cheap pot metal one which should increase sustain.

    I think I'll strip the body and repaint it.
    Drop my "85" reverse zebra Schaller in it.
    Add a set of gotoh or sperzel locking tuners.

    So.....paint scheme????? hmmmmmm????

    Transulsant with some color like red or black always looks badass to see the wood.

    I don't know about translucent. But the red and black are great colors. One I've always wanted to do was Warren D. Martinis scull and blood charvel paint scheme.

    Nice good for you!
    Happy ngd!!!!!

    Shhhhh....I wont tell it if you wont.
    Actually, I just screwed the trem in yesterday. Ive gotten so used to playing without one I didnt even miss it.
    Until I did.
    It handles dives np

    As for the sustain, I cant imagine it getting any better but if it does let me know.
    Ohhhh that duncan!

    Maybe he'll matic-ize it and sell it to you if you beg really nicely.

    Send me the ruby red, I'll pay shipping.
    I'll pop those tuners on it for you and send it back...in a timely fashion...kind of.
    I promise.

    Meh. If this fender trem and block are a significant difference, I'll order one for Ruby.

    Drug it out of the closet. Maybe I'll get motivated to do something with it.

    I think I'm gonna sell this little Roland Cube amp I got or trade for a Peavey Rage 158. PM if you're interested. It's basically brand new.
