Re: How To Fix a Stuck Vibrato Arm Set Screw
Hi! I have an issue related to this topic. I’m trying to adjust the tension of the hex trem arm on my pre-refined Fly. I’d like the arm to fall away when I let it go. However, even when I loosen the set screw significantly, the rotation is still quite stiff. I’d appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Re: Fly Pickups (Gen 1, Gen 2, and Other)
Anyone know what size hex wrench fits the adjustment screws on the Seymour Duncan pickups on a Fly Mojo?

Re: Pre Refined Fly Whammy Bar
Thanks, VJ! I did tighten the set screw in the bridge, but that just affects the rotation of the bushing. There doesn’t seem to be a way to clamp the bar in the bushing itself. No biggie...even all the way in, there’s enough clearance to avoid the knobs and switches. I just like the extra leverage I...

Re: Pre Refined Fly Whammy Bar
Hi! I just acquired a 1997 (I believe) Fly Deluxe. Love it! One question: Is there a way to control the depth of the trem bar? In other words, is there a way to keep the bar higher in the bridge or is it designed to be fully inserted? Thanks!

Re: Fly Neck Setup - Action, Frets and Cleaning
Thanks for the advice! I did notice that when a fret the low E, the adjacent fret is VERY close to the string. I’m waiting on a set of hex wrenches and a new truss rod wrench. Once I receive them, I plan to lower the pickups slightly and loosen the truss rod a little. I love the low action (no disce...

Re: Fly Neck Setup - Action, Frets and Cleaning
I hope this relevant to the thread...I just bought a 1997 Fly Deluxe. It’s in great shape, and I don’t think any of the previous owners messed with the factory setup. The action is very low (which I like), but when I fret the low E string, it almost sounds muted. Has anyone else noticed this issue? ...

Re: Vibrato Arm Bushing (refined)
Just bought a 1997 Fly Deluxe. The trem arm is extremely loose but I can’t find a wrench to fit it. Any advice?
