Tremelo Bar / Arm JT580LP

williamw · **Posted:** Sun Dec 16, 2012 1:48 am

I'm in need of a tremelo bar for a 2005 Jackson RR3
I'm fairly sure it's a JT580LP

Chrome if possible, Black is ok.

I found one on ebay for a JT585LP black, but i'm not certain if they are the same.

at the moment I have an After Market Floyd Rose bar on it I have a few extra for my FRP,
but it's not a tight fit, the bar wiggles a bit.

Open to suggestions.
thanks..

Yes, the one on Ebay will fit, but if you really would prefer a chrome one, try these..

I have some aftermarket OFR, FRP bars but the are loose.
I even actually pulled the bar from my Floyd Rose Pro it fits nice and tight in the FRP,
but it's loose and wiggles in the JT580LP

Is this the way they are then?

If you look at the pic, they come with the receiver for the trem arm so they fit like they are supposed to..

Thanks for pointing that out, I was'nt paying good enough attention.
the reciever is gonna make all the difference.
I'm ordering one from there, stewmac is a good trusted place too..

I really appreciate your help.

I ordered the bar from Stewmac and it is perfect.
works great, and matches perfect.

Thanks...

They also carry them at GC for 10 bucks. I bought one for mine and it was a perfect fit. Not sure if they had chrome but they definitely have black.

I have an old DXMG with the 580LP and a schaller-made OFR arm fit it perfectly.

I've had mixed results with the off-brand ones you can find at GC, sometimes they work sometimes not.

Getting one from Stewmac is usually a pretty sure thing.

Curious, I had ordered a Trem Bar for a reverse Neck Jackson years ago and what I am wondering on the ones you order if it is just the Bar or the actual full bar and socket together that you can simply change out both pieces for a new tight fit..
