it could be a spring vibrating inside the cavity if it's still connected, or the loose trem claw if there are no springs.
take the back cover off and see which it is. |

its coming from between the bridge block and the body. it still makes it if i put my hand on the springs to stop them from vibrating
so that takes the thought i had of "get new springs so everythings tighter" idea edit: wouldn't the bridge not be flush with the body like it is right now if it was the springs?

Is the block touching the body?
Is it a 6 point trem? Pics? Front and back please. |
