and yeah, the OFR sustain block is longer than the body is thick, so unless you have your trem really high up for some reason, it will stick out the back. not much, but just enough to where you need to take the back plate off. also, the right post arm is longer, so the body needs a touch of routing, unless youre lucky and carvin does that for you. like on mine, the original finish is routed in. maybe they used to route for ofr's?? |
actually, the OFR7 sustain block doesn't even come close to sticking out of the back. my OFR7 is set where the bottom of the baseplate in flush with the top of the body, and there's still about an 1/8" of an inch left before the sustain block would be poking through. i CAN put the cover back on, but there is just slight (very slight) rubbing of the springs, so i leave it off. i leave them off on all me guitars regardless though.
