I have another problem. As I am putting a trem in with a much bigger block, the springs are sitting high and proud of the back of the guitar body. I’ve been pondering over it and thought of one solut...

Posted by: @tv101 Errrr - I'm looking hard, but struggling a bit to find things that I don't like about it! OK, so the bright yellow covers probably wouldn't have been my first thought or choice, but...
