Fender Jaguar HH Tremolo

pepilocura Joined: Feb 15, 2008 Posts: 1	Posted on Feb 15 2008 10:28 AM Hi! I just bought a new Fender Jaguar HH and it sounds great for me. The thing is that I NEED the tremolo, so I was looking for information in order to replace the tailpiece. But there are two problems: THE HOLES of the tailpiece. I donÂ´t know if the new tailpiece will cover those holes or not. Has anyone done this? Please, I need help and I NEED the trem. Top

When you add all that up along with the cost of a JM/Jag-style trem, it might not be a bad option to consider. ...and, no, I haven't tried one. Top

One was originally for my Epiphone Les Paul Jr. 90, but now that I'm closer to getting a Gibson Les Paul Junior, I'll put the Bigsby on that one. I'll do neck trems on the Epi, if need be.

I e-mailed the manufacturer of this and they informed me that this will not work. seems the stop bar is set back farther and would throw the scale length to long. The only way around that is to put the bushings to 1 3/4 back from the scale length (high e saddle). Top
