I have a nice fit for the posts of a Wilkinson Trem but want to tighten them up a tad to minimise the risk of them rising under string tension.
Tips and techniques please...
- Teflon tape?
- a blob of white glue?
thanks

No...this will make it worse

Yes! If you need to get them out you can heat them gently with a soldering iron until the glue lets go.
I've also used epoxy to fix slightly looser ferrules - not ideal but easily reversible the same way using heat.
Measure twice, cut once...
