I like to use shielding tape

I use small springs for this, works perfectly.

The best way is to sink the right size allen screw into the hole so the stud can be tightened against it.

Erasers help correct mistakes, even those not pencil related.

With string tension ther no chanse to buzz

I've wrapped the threads in a strip of foil. Seemed to work.

Thank you for sharing the wisdom

This seems to be a similar fix for loose screw-in Strat trem arms where those little springs are used to provide upward pressure. That didn't work long-term for myself as the springs kept getting mangled, and the arm eventually broke off at the tip. I prefer the push-in trem arms with a small bolt to tighten the arm. Wondering if there's a similar solution for posts that uses a better design.

Aight imma have to try this out

Just use a piece of the correct diameter vacuum hose in each hole

Why worry about the loose posts? Under string tension they will not be moving.

Genius level hacking

You could easily just cut a guitar pick and use it to create pressure. That's what I've done the last years and it keeps the screws really tight, and they don't lose contact as they basically just get a small chip/slice of guitar pick

So basically it's like the springs under the vibrato bar on a strat. Could you use a small spring? Maybe just 3 coils?

I wonder if this is a common issue with these guitars. I did a video with one of these and had a similar issue. Mine was a factory second, so it had a few issues. They're still pretty cool guitars though

What can I do about my janky microphonic pickups

Who’s F-ing around with the posts so much to work them loose?😂

What makes it loose?

Hmm good tip Phil

Aluminum foil, way better. Wrap the screws.

Teflon tape

Dude where'd my guitar go ?

Another reason not to top wrap.

And then you have an eraser in your guitar that you cant get out

Copper wire

Don’t buy a Gibson is the best solution

Super glue works
