Hi guys, this is my first PRS in whale blue. Great guitar and great sound. I do have an issue with the trem system. I bought it used and it supposedly had a setup before it came in. When it came in I noticed the bridge wasn't level. I believe factory specs say 1/16th of an inch above the body but the high E side was decked and the low E was to spec. I backed off the screws and leveled the bridge to spec and then I noticed when I applied pressure to install the trem bar the high E side dropped to the body again. I've just had to re-level it again without string tension on it but somebody's been in there because the screw under the B string is missing the small washer. I don't usually use the trem in fact I deck all the trems on my Strats so if I can't use it for a while it isn't a big deal but I need to know why that side of the bridge takes a dive to the body when there's pressure on it. The block underneath is stable and doesn't move...it's just that side of the bridge. If I don't try to install the bar it plays wonderfully with no tuning issues at all. Also the height of the high E and low E side screws aren't level but the bridge is. I hope you can help. This is my first PRS and it won't be my last!
