Andro123 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hello everyone. I recently purchased a Custom Shop Strat body and found that a pivot insert is loose and I'm afraid it'll cause some tuning problems. Has this occurred with anyone? I'd appreciate any help on fixing this problem! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitar2005 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 The ferrule that goes in the body is loose? I fix that with epoxy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andro123 Posted December 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 The ferrule that goes in the body is loose? I fix that with epoxy. Fill the hole with epoxy and push in the ferrule, clean off the remaining epoxy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitar2005 Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 You don't have to fill the hole with epoxy. You only need a little. I usually spread epoxy in the hole's sides and on the ferrule (insert) itself. Tape around the hole to minimize cleanup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
