Removing the 4 middle mountingscrews and enlarging the 2 outer screwholes used to be a standard mod on mine. Less squeek and a more fluid motion.
After reading Dan Erlewine's setup for strattrems loosening the 4 middle mountingscrews, I found a nice compromise leaving 4 screws of which the middle two(a&b string) are slightly loosened(leave a gap big enough to slide a business card underneath) and keep the trem anchored in case the main "outer studs" collaps.
FWIW. I think a properly adjusted strattrem has better functioning "wobble" than any Bigsby. Obviously a floating setup is key.
