The thicker bass plate and steel spring block, coupled with the weight- balanced, stainless steel bridge saddles, help to deliver increased sustain and an extremely well balanced tonal response throughout the instrument's frequency range. The tremolo arm is installed by carefully threading it into the hole adjacent to the first string. Do not overtighten, as you may snap the arm off in the block. Do not remove the tremolo arm once it has been installed, or the spring in the receptacle hole could be lost. To store the instrument in its case, simply swing the tremolo arm towards the corner of the case where the output jack is located. If you choose to remove the tremolo arm, you will need to place a small piece of tape over the arm hole to insure that the spring remains in the hole.
