Hi all I hope you're good today? I was wondering if anyone might be able to give me the size of the washers on a Gibson short vibrola? I have one fitted to my SG Special and they are missing so the arm has play in it.

Thanks

Gareth

They come with plastic nylon washers in white. But a metal washer is better because it keeps the lever tight to the tremolo bracket. I wouldn't even sweat that little plastic washer.

The screw (torque) is what determines how tight the arm is.
