Troy Van Leeuwen Jazzmaster - tremolo arm

Post by adchaino » Sat Jul 31, 2021 12:25 pm

Hi all,
Can someone post a close-up photo of the arm/bar and its dimensions?
I got a TVL Jazzmaster recently, but the bar that came with it doesn't fit in the socket - it's too thick.
The seller sent me another one (AllParts BP-2275-001) and it's exactly the same.
As I understand the TVL JM's arm is a snap-in? A screw-in arm from my other JM barely fits in the socket, but I don't want to force it.
Thanks in advance

I believe the Allparts one you mentioned is for Indonesian or other far eastern guitars - most likely it would fit a Squier. Judging from the pics of the TVL, it's a standard AVRI-style trem. If that's true, this is the arm you need:

The TVL JM indeed has the AVRI trem 0054466000/0054466049. As Riley trem listing below confirms, it takes the push-in 0054473049 arm.
