Spare Floyd string lock insert anyone?

clarkefan

Went to change strings for the first time on my brand new guitar earlier and noticed it's missing one of these little black things.  It came from the factory like that, the screw was wound in tighter and holding the string by itself

Anyway if I can avoid buying a set I'd like to cos I might be getting a titanium set in a bit.  They seem to be a bit scarce anyway.

I'd be happy to pay for one and post if anybody's got a spare one, thanks!

I lost one myself when changing strings the other month (god knows were it went as there's was only 10 feet of clear laminate flooring in either direction) So had to buy a replacement set so i have 5 spare kicking around,Fire me your addy via PM and i'll throw you one in the post monday

Them bloddy things are designed to be a pain!
You always need some spares when you have a Floyd.

What you on about, I have never lost one....

spent too much of my life looking for the buggers though.

i have learnt not to try and catch these small items when I inevitably drop them. Much better to watch them fall and try and follow the bounce.

Never came back to this, apologies @Gizmo , and thanks a lot, sorted for the little bleeder plus a spare, you're a star!
