LarsXI Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 I've searched extensively for measurements to make a trem template, and there are three measurements I haven't been able to find anywhere. I need to know the length of the entire back cavity, from the edge closest to the neck to the far edge. Also, I need to know the width of the chamber in which the sustain block is located. Finally, I need to know the alignment of the spring chamber relative to the the sustain block route. Knowing the distance from the right or left edge of the spring chamber to the right/left edge of the block route would be sufficient. .........................................................______......__ .........................................................l....|.....l......| .........................................................l...C.....l......| .____________________________l.._|_....l.....| l....................................................................l.....| l....................................................................l.....| l....................................................................l.....B l.<-----------...A....------------------------------>..l.....| l....................................................................l.....| l.____________________________...........l.....| ..........................................................l.___._.l..._|_ If anyone has insight to offer, it would be appreciated.

Mattia Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Isn't there a pinned topic for this? Or does that only contain FR-style cavities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickguard Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Regardless, make sure you measure the trem on hand ---don't rely on someone else's measurements. I've found quite a lot of variation among trems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
