Cheers @Sparky
So nothing is wrong with it? This model has no back plate so must be done from the front somehow? Roughly makes sense on this video to me as a layman at 14:40 https://youtu.be/Q6aAAtYC9a4
Yep. Strat bridges balance between the tension of the strings and the tension of the springs in the tremolo cavity on the back of the guitar. You can tighten the screws in the claw (will make sense when you look in there) to pull the bridge towards the body. But detune the strings slightly first or you’re fighting ever-increasing string tension.
Setting up a Strat requires a bit of patience.
