OK, I know this is a piddly issue, but I've just gotten a used Ibanez and the little tip is gone off the 3-way switch. I looked on the Ibanez web site, and I could buy a dozen of them there...but is that really the only solution? I mean, I imagine it's not a lot of money, but I don't need 12 of them.

A slightly bigger issue is the trem arm. This is an RG120. Also on the Ibanez site, I found the whole trem unit; is that the only way to get a new arm? I did see a part number for the arm.

And just a word of advice. If someone suggests laying ceramic tile in the sun room to you, my advice is: DON'T!!!! It'll make you hurt in places you never imagined could hurt, and that thin-set and grout will take your guitar calluses right off!

Just had a recent experience with the thinset. the trick is to where gloves.

Mrblance:Just take your new gtr to your local
guitar shop.Most shops like mine keep a selection
of 'generic' parts in stock.They should have a
switch cap and trem bar for you.
Should'nt be more than 5-10 bucks. Good Luck!!

Thanks, from one Mike to another. That makes sense. I should have thought of it, since I bought a 500K pot like that.
