Yep, teflon does wonders with that trem collet.
The funny thing is that the tailpiece feels indeed a bit flimsy on the
CIJ JM, but not on the CIJ Jag.
Perhaps due to the shorter scale and less string tension.
I also tightened the trem collet with a set of pliers and the trem arm
in position with a tad of thaflon tape.
It stopped swinging and rattling since.
But in all a niece guitar, even with the stock pups, altough the show
their limitations in a full band setting.
