See my pic above with the caliper installed.
With the full length end piece that goes around to the strap button or would it look like this one:

That does look better to my eyes. Probably just because that's what Starplayers mostly look like. I'm sure the LesTrem works fine, but there's the aesthetic. You don't put mags on a classic Harley.

No! Don't! I've seen those pics too.

So, If I've got this right, the problem is the stop tail stud holes. Mine has them, a factory fitted Trem model doesn't. So installing the standard Diamond Deluxe Trem will leave my stud holes (ib:jb) exposed?

I don't want my stud holes exposed. :(

So I have to either use the short Diamond Deluxe and base plate which is very spendy, or a LesboTrem which will look, truncated? Weird? Wrong? Cool? Better than the big one?

I have no idea! :problem:
sell it and buy the one with a wobble stick OR

suck it up and bend the neck to wobble haha...
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

don't forget you either need a huge pedalboard OR axefx if you're thinking of joining a worship band... you'll be hitting the Fano next.

I can't join a worship band. God doesn't want me. We came to that understanding a long time ago and we're both happier for it.

And yes, I am very aware of the Fano.
