                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Are you looking for a place to buy one? If so I can 't help, but it doesn't seem like it would be very hard to make one. I don't know if an actual spoon would be strong enough, but you could find a chunk of metal that you like the shape of, and a fairly beefy hollow standoff and a screw the right size and just bolt it on. According to <a href="https://www.guitarnoise.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=24890&amp;highlight=tremolo+arm">https://www.guitarnoise.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=24890&amp;highlight=tremolo+arm</a> it seems that American trems have 10-32 size hole while imports have a 6mm hole. It doesn't list the thread pitch for the imports, just take you trem arm in and ask, they should have a pitch gauge. The standoff would be a personal thing as to how high you want it, but I bet a stack of washers would work fine, but they would probably scratch the surface of trem unless you put something between them.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I recently saw the band Umphrey's McGee and was noticing the lead guitarist had a (maybe?) customized trem arm. It was really small and looked almost like a spoon that faced away from the neck. It gave him easy access to all his knobs. He was playing a customized Cort Strat-like guitar, but I haven't been able to find the model and it definitely wasn't his standard guitar (which is a black fender strat). Anyone ever heard of or seen something like this? I wish I could find a good pic but I haven't been able to.<br><br>*EDIT*<br>I found a picture, hopefully it'll help the ID. Check the knob where the trem should be, that's what I want.<br><br><a href="http://images.jambase.com/bands/umphreysmcgee/Philly/3.jpg">http://images.jambase.com/bands/umphreysmcgee/Philly/3.jpg</a>]]></content:encoded>
