help! Loose Floyd Rose Trem hole

[wjl123]

hi
i have an ibanez rg350dx with a edge 3 bridge the problem is that the trem hole for the whammy bar is loose whenever i tilt the guitar towards the ground it may slide out.

Is there any way i can fix this without replacing the whole bridge?

thanks in advance.

my xiphos is using the same bridge. does ur guitar come with a manual? if not, do a "divebomb", see below the tilted bridge, there's a very small hole behind the whammy bar hole. use the smallest allen key to adjust tightness of whammy bar hole.

As what theunknown has mentioned, tighten the whammy bar hole.

Here's a picture to help,

heh of course you dont have to take out the whole bridge! just do a full dive and hold it there. but man its like putting thread into a needle. ok im exaggerating(spelling?).

Haha yes! No need for the whole bridge to be out. The picture is to show where to poke the small allen key into. It's the top picture btw. Good luck!

dive bomb the trem. using a small allen wrench tighten the screw.
