Mod 2 trem bar

[dk1ben]

Can any one tell me where I can get a trem bar for my model 2? Its not a kahlor trem. Thanks for any help.

If it's not a Kahler, what kind is it?
Jackson JT-6?
A pic might be helpful, if you have one.
Did you check E-Bay?

So it's a Jackson JT-6 tremolo;

Ibanez - Edge bars can used, too !?!

[cmh2007]

they are identical trembars, and you can pick up the Ibanez Edge bar from Guitar Center (15bux), as opposed to the JT-6 bar, which will run you about 32 bux plus shipping.

Yea its a JT-6 I think. Sorry I should of put that in my orig post. Here is a picture.

About half way down the page. Drop Dave an e mail, I am sure most here can vouch for the man.

You can definitely use the Ibanez trem bar on that trem. I have the same type Model 2 (only mine is blue) and I got one (an Ibanez bar) dirt cheap on ebay. After I got it though, I've seen the Ibanez bars sold at Guitar Center.

Or if ya want. You can replace the whole assembly with a replacement floyd arm and bushing. They just unscrew from the bottom and screw right back in place. It would be the arm with the thumb screw ring on it.

^The best option.
Controllable friction (where the bar "parks", how hard to move it) and more durable.
Ibby bars tend to break right at the tip after a while.
And the only way to control the friction is with those annoying little plastic bits... GRRRR

good idea, the model 2 I just got has the arm socket flop around.

I've been usign the Ibby "Sure grip" arms on my Model 3 for so long (like 16 years!) that a JT-6 bridge looks unnatural to me with any other arm in it

Sure enough, when I bought my Model 5A 7 years ago it was missing the arm too.

There's a mountain of the damned things somewhere
