Finding A JT580 Whammy Bar Online where?

[Danzo]

How hard is it to find this whammy bar online or any old Jackson Whammy bar (JT 500 /80/90series) online to buy or at a store?
There's guitars I see online that go for a good discount just cause the whammy bar is missing. I went on ebay and guitar center but didn't find the whammy bar at their site. Or wrong keywords?

Where can I buy one? Link me a store link.

Oh I should introduce myself. My name is Danny and I've always liked Jackson guitars, esp the ones made in the past. I like Kelly's and Soloist styles. I'm into everything from very commercial pop music to metal.

The Rhoads and Mustaine V is awesome but its not fashionably or ergonomically suitable to me.

try to search the forum maybe "trem bar" for keywords and welcome to JCF.

Yes, the problem is the filtering is bad and I get anything related to it such as just talking about the bridge

I need help in KEYWORD search, how to use google.,

In addition i dont know if its called a tremolo bar, a whammy bar or trem arm.

Thanks again for the help =)
how do i know if the arm will fit? Aren't Jackson tremolos all have different arm sizes (like comparing screwdrivers to phillips)

Thats another problem of mine is I don't know that kind of info.

the 500 is thicker so you'll need a allen scre about the length of a nut lock screw

OK I bought the Jackson Kelly Standard Professional. Do I need a separate thread to introduce my new guitar/ I'll do that later

It has the JT580 Licensed floyd, Its a A SCREW ON type. Your link will work for that ..

I think the bar for a kahler fits in there Im not sure on the mm's for it. Its probably the tackeuchi model where the bar screws right into the trem block so the schaller type setup will not work in it.

If you get in a jam finding a screw-in bar that fits snug, sometimes a luthier can drill out the plate and install the collared variety.

That IS my guitar. I just got it 2 days ago.

Ok looks like a JT580 L.P.with a reg floyd trem arm stud you may need to try a few to find one to fit.

If it's a normal JT580 LP I'm fairly sure this will fit:

The guy's alright I've bought stuff from him before. He sells trems the exact same as the Jackson ones but without the Jackson name on them. I put one on my KE3 and I know for a fact the Jackson arm off my DK2M fits it perfectly cos I've tried it.
