Hi everyone!
I have a Washburn N1 model, which I had modified a year ago. Now, it has a Schaller tremolo, locking tuners and new pickups. The thing here is that the bridge was total CRAP!!! The saddles wore out really fast, one of the string blocks (and its screw) was broken for no reason at all, and worst of all, the intonation screw holes of two strings got stripped, making the high e string completely unusable. I never gave the bridge a different use than the expected one. (I don't know why I can't attach images here)
I replaced it for a brand new 1000 series FR bridge, in order to have my guitar as functional as before (it is not installed yet), but I still want to repair my Schaller tremolo since I consider it has a lot of good things, despite the previously mentioned issues.
The tremolo has some squared figured bases in the base plate, specifically were the intonation screws are placed. Those figures are the ones responsible por securing the screws. I would like to know if there's any place I can buy them or even have them made, so I can install them and that way restoring the tremolo's functionality. (I'm really sorry I couldn't upload any pictures, I don't know what's wrong with the site).
I'll really appreciate all the input!
