I'm having a slight problem with keeping my Starfire V in tune. I'm fine if I am really light with the trem. What options do I have for a replacement bridge on this guitar? Would a roller bridge help?

Thanks

I would check the nut first. Try putting some graphite in the nut slots. Sand the lead on a pencil and use that. If your tuning issues go away, that's your issue.

Every other string change I put some Big Bends Nut Sauce in the nut slots, and white lithium ion grease on the saddles and tension bar of the Bigsby. Helps a ton!

I also find mine is sensitive to strings. Some simply will NOT hold tune on that guitar. I find elixirs work beautifully! Especially the nanoweb.
