.strandberg* EGS Tremolo Arm Bushing

thingiverse

I've used .strandberg* guitars featuring the EGS pro tremolo for a while now and I'm impressed by how well they work, especially when you consider that there's a long bushing around the arm designed to get a perfect fit and control the ease of the turning movement. However, my experience with this guitar has also shown me that sometimes things can go wrong - in my case, my arm started to become loose and I couldn't adjust it anymore. After taking a closer look, I noticed that the bushing had developed a crack. Unfortunately, at that time, the web shop was out of stock on new bushings so I had to come up with a solution of my own. That's when I designed my own replacement bushing using Tinkercad and it turned out perfectly. Printing it in nylon was probably the best decision I made as this material is ideal for this part and will hardly ever break again.
