Members Jamesapp Posted November 21, 2010 Members Share Posted November 21, 2010 Hello,I recently purchased a gretsch 6122 59 country gentleman. I wondered if anyone on these forums had any experience with the vibrato tailpiece? Mine became loose, and this morning I tried to tighten it by turning it clockwise. But it came right off. I could use some help in putting it back on. Not really sure how to do this. I have the tremelo arm a paper washer and a metal washer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am thinking of taking the guitar to someone, to have the tremelo put back on and tightened. But thought, if it is something I could do myself I would.

Members akapuli Posted November 22, 2010 Members Share Posted November 22, 2010 I think you already gave a try. What about going to a guitar tech? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rick 381 Posted November 22, 2010 Members Share Posted November 22, 2010 I have a 6122SP I would think the Bigsbys are the same. My arm is held on by a carriage style bolt with washers and a nut on the back hidden inside the spring. I don't see anything in your parts list about a bolt and nut, do you have those?
