The

tremolo

arm

is

installed

by

carefully

thread-

ing

it

into

the

hole

adjacent

to

the

first

string.

Do

not

over

tighten,

as

you

may

snap

the

arm

off

in

the

block.

Once

the

tremolo

arm

has

been

installed,

it

should

not

be

removed,

because

there

is

a

spring

in

the

receptacle

hole

that

could

fall

out

and

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.

Jaguar/Jazzmaster

The

Jaguar

and

Jazzmaster

model

guitars

employ

a

tremolo

unit

which

is

much

different

from

the

vintage

tremolo.

They

contain

several

special

features

which

are

unique

to

these

guitars.

One

special

feature

is

the

"Trem-Lock"

button,

which

locks

the

tremolo

action

when

it

is

pushed

toward

the

tremolo

spring

tension

screw.

This

allows

much

quicker

tuning

of

the

instrument,

because

during

the

tuning

process

the

varying

tension

of

any

string

cannot

affect

the

pitch

of

all

the

other

strings.

After

tuning,

unlock

the

tremolo

by

pushing

the

Trem-Lock

button

away

from

the

tremolo

spring

tension

screw.

If

a

string

breaks

during

a

perform-

ance,

the

remaining

strings

will

be

out

of

tune.

However

the

tremolo

may

be

locked,

if

the

tremolo

arm

is

first

depressed,

thereby

returning

the

remain-

ing

strings

to

pitch.
