Floyd Rose Tremolo Arms

For anyone with a ZR problem, this is your best off-the-shelf solution to the terrible Ibanez arm bushing design. The bushings in my son's S470 ZR Tremolo would shatter after a few months of use. By replacing that arm with the Floyd Rose Arm.. (1269-B) so far the problem has abated. This unit is an improvement over the Ibanez design, but you will need to use some BLUE Loctite on the base screw as the screw will initially come loose. In my case, if it comes loose again, I will likely add a 1mm nylon and a 1mm metal washer to give a wider footprint to the bushing as well as lengthening the screw about 2mm to 3mm.
third time and I'll be making my own bushings.

This is a good solution for anyone with this problem, don't forget the Loctite.

Came in 2 days and fit perfectly. Thanks Kyle!

Perfect substitute for my old FR arm which finally failed (stripped threads) after more than 21 years of use! This one looks and feels indistinguishable from the old one, and I expect it to last just as long.

Great finish, great quality. Schaller, world-famous for its products, one of the best.

Thank you so much.. It' is difficult to find original parts in my country. StewMac u did great job! :)

Bought this arm and arm holder kit to replace the arm from my old Original Floyd Rose that had the original screw-in type arm. The arm had become very sloppy and noisy (could hear the noise of the arm swinging back and forth thru my pickups).

To replace the arm holder, all strings must be loosened and the Floyd Rose removed to get access to other half of the the tremolo arm holder on the bottom of the bridge. I did the replacement while I was changing strings to save time. I removed the old tremolo arm holder with two pairs of pliers, and installed the new one using the allen wrench I use to tighten up the Floyd's nut and string locks. Took about 5 minutes to replace the arm holder, and it fit perfectly, no routing needed of the trem block cavity to make it fit. Does not seem sloppy or loose as others have mentioned. Works great!

I got the Double locking tremolo bar hoping to save some money. the thing is loose and shakes, i tried fixing it with tape around the end but it unscrews itself whenever it moves (which is inevitable) making this pointless. The unscrewing could not be fixed with any amount of WD-40. A own a Floyd rose original which has an infinitely better bar.

Well, i lost my whammy bar to the Floyd Rose 1000 series on my ESP LTD Deluxe EC-1000(The grey eclipse with the Floyd Rose). Well, i bought item 1269 to replace my whammy bar but guess what? I just found the whammy bar i lost like two days ago. Well the bar i bought from StewMac, it fits PERFECTLY!!!!

I ordered this to replace a wobbly trem arm on my Jackson Dinky equipped with a JT580LP tremolo. It was a perfect fit.

The only negative thing I can say about it is that chrome finish looks more like a brushed finish. So the look doesn't completely match my trem. But that's fine, the perfect fit is what really matters.

It's a very snug, solid fit. Now if I could only find a replacement bar for my Zero Resistance bridge for my Ibanez.. hmmm
