i have a mij big block jag and the arm wont stay in place swings too much and falls out completely, and yes mine does not lock into place regardless of how far i push it in....
any thoughts?

The arm wont fit, it comes with a different collet. Fender as far as i know aren't selling them separate. There are plenty of threads about the staytrem system arm on here if you want some more information.
http://www.staytrem.com The site seems to be down at the moment but drop him an email enquiries@staytrem.com and i'm sure he can sort you out. They're about £30.

has it already been posted? Fender has the Metallic KO on their website now! I've got one on order and have been checking daily\every other day for two months! for them to post the pic. It.looks.great. over here. The lighting is nice.

Can't wait for mine to get to Seattle. It'll be my 1st offset since I sold my old 64 jag back in '98 (I forgot the color)

can't hotlink the photo and the link seems too long - here's a tinyurl (preview as a courtesy)
here she is:

Finally - Fender took their time with that pic....

7 days and counting...

FYI, I spoke to John from Staytrem and he said the arm is actually not any taller. This is a mistake from the guys at Fender, that he assumes comes from them not fully pushing the arm in.

I feel like i'm about to be "that guy"

but it is actually taller.
I've got 3 of them in addition to MIJ and AVRI arms. The MIJ arm is pretty much the same height but it's a few mm's taller than the AVRI arm. It's also definitely pushed in all the way. I'd guess that the arm he used for the measurements off of is slightly different than an AVRI? Not that it matters much, it's still far superior taller or not.

Totally looks Great HNB. Is that a candy apple? Or is the Marr a candy paint? Heck metallic is in the name it better be? Also, since it's a color off his aged candy Jag I am counting on it! Golly I hope it is.

p.s. I keep seeing cars (see 2011 Jeep images) with the KO color. Is this a car color too? No prob, just askin'

DAYS only DAYS from now I will seeeeeeee hahahahahahha

What I used is auto paint you can normally find in Autozone. It is Duplicolor brand and the color is called Burnt Copper Metallic. Metallic K.O. is suppsoed to simulated aged Candy Apple Red. It is an orangy red. There are quite a few new cars that come in a color similar to it.

The clear coat on mine is Deft Nitro Gloss.

if you'll go back and comb through the thread, you'll see some links to where you can buy the drop-in version of what Marr based his design on.

I did a quick demo yesterday using some movies I shoot while I was waiting for my bandmates at our practice space. Go easy on me, and feedbacks are welcome!

Cool, thanks for sharing that! The 4-way switch and pups sounds mighty fine. It'll be a new adventure for me with those tone options. I'm looking forward to the filters too. Still waiting on my Metallic KO, maybe here Friday? (fingers crossed)

after about 30 or 45 seconds of that video it was obvious to me that the dude was more interested in looking cool and having the video look dynamic than actually showing off the sounds of the guitar.

no explanations for the switch positions as he plays? WTF? and the way he had the trem back sticking STRAIGHT BACKWARDS come on that is nothing but gimmick.

How longs a piece of string?

How long will Fender have this guitar in production?

I've never really followed timelines of sig models before...
and this one is on my, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bw4uj_ZP ... ted%20list

Waiting (saving) to buy it say in 2 years time - too long?
