Stoptail Bridge Lean Issue - Can you give an opinion about a deal?

Had that issue on an SE from the same era. I got a new bridge and it was mostly resolved, would occasionally happen as a set of strings got older.

The tissue on the bridge solved the buzz. Its definitely coming from the bridge. The hard decision now, keep or return the guitar?

Buy locking posts and call it a day. Then when you take all of your strings off your bridge will stay put!

My experience: I would not recommend Tone Pro's metric for SE guitars. They do Lock great and resolve the lean. But for some reason you cannot screw them all the way. I found the lowest they go to be a tinge too high for my preference for string action. And does not retain the tone like regular brass studs from PRS or John Mann. I have not tried other locking studs

Or take a couple off at a time.
