Floyd Rose Problems.

So i got the razorback. what's wrong? The whammy comes out it seems as iff the plastic piece thats attached to it doesnt do its job very good. so i usually just slide it in and do different heights (if u push the bar too much through when having both out, it wont go in,) sometimes i find a sweet spot and it wont jiggle out (i beat the shit out of the whammy) Ill buy one that screws in possibly although the bar is pretty sweet.

Second: doing crickets...(if u know what that means) with the bar seems to shake the piece that holds the whammy bar loose. (it can move side to side a bit) so i busted my ass for an hour tightening it and finding what the problem is and now hopefully its fixed.

third. within the first day. this tiny ass screw like doesnt even have a head on it falls out of the piece that holds the whammy bar (possibly te plastic piece too) but its so small i cant put it back in/it wud probably just fall out again anyways.

And the tuning problem? hell no. this thing is solid. I do drop d tuning and can tuen it back up to standard without any problems at all. unbelievable.

ever have these problems?/know what to do?

i was having problems with mine too. the whammy bar kept loosening off of the the mount on the floyd rose itself, plus the mount kept loosening too. what i did was i put a little piece of tape on the threads of both and tightened the shit out of them. wont come loose now
