holLoWskull Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Congrats Travis! Glad you enjoy the improvement (and glad you suffered no sheared screw head trauma lol). Now you just need to get another Mann trem so your Mirage I doesn’t feel left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 One thing I did forget to mention: I swapped out the springs that I had in the mirage for the ones provided with the bridge. Apparently the supplied springs were a higher tension because I took out four and replaced them with three. I used four springs at first but that put the baseplate flush to the body. Removing one spring gave it just enough relief to float above the body so I could bend up for some slight vibrato. (I tune down half a step to E flat with 10-52 gauge strings) And did I mention the action on this bridge is SMOOTH...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
