EVH tremolo posts stuck
Hi all, first post
I recently purchased a used 1991 EVH model. It hasn’t been played hardly at all during its life, so it’s in really good shape. My question is in regard to the tremolo posts. When I tried adjusting them with the Allen wrench, they were pretty stuck and wouldn’t move. I’m assuming they’re stuck from not being touched in 30 years. I have a spare set of gotoh posts that I can replace them with, the only issue is getting the old ones out. Are there any suggestions on how to remove them? Or possibly a way to lubricate them so they’ll be adjustable?
