I
f you are not familiar with a tremolo
installa on please consult a guitar tech or
luthier for assembly.
The installa on
requires knowledge and tools.
A tremolo spring installer assure a secure
tremolo spring exchange. An underlay
between tremolo plate and guitar body
holds the tremolo in a floa ng posi on with
loaded tremolo springs (for quick string or
spring exchange, intona on se ngs, etc.).
The ABM 5400 is compa ble to the
„Floyd
Rose Original“
rou ng template. In other
words: If your guitar has got a „Floyd Rose
Original“ tremolo mounted, the ABM 5400 is
a perfect retrofit.
We deliver the tremolo with a 37mm high
steel block. This standard is suitable for
guitars with a body depth of 44,45mm with
floa ng mount opera on and tremolo
pocket. If your instrument shows a „Floyd
Rose Classic“ rou ng template without a
tremolo undercut you may need the block
with a height of 42mm. Guitars with a
thinner body may need a block height of
33mm.
You can s ll order ABM 5400 with a 32 or
42mm block. In this case please leave a
message while the ordering process.
All parts of the ABM 5400 tremolo are
exchangable
,
like the knife edge or the
tremolo arm socket.
Tremolo arm: The play of the arm can be
adjusted as desired. The adjustment screw
is located on the rear area of the tremolo
plate next to the intona on screws. This
lock screw adjusts the play between the
arm and the DELRIN sleeve built into the
tremolo block. This can also be replaced

Saddle lock screws: You find them le and
right beneath the saddles in both
sidewalls of the tremolo. As soon all
saddles adjustments are made, please
ghen both lock screws parallel to lock
the saddles equal from both sides.
