Any tips for getting the vibrato to stay vaguely in tune or is that a lost cause?
I don’t use the trem, the little arm that locks the trem in place is pushed into the back of the trem block.
I only use it when away from home on business trips or holidays, so don’t need trem.

Now where are those pliers...
I tried that, the brass split and the ball bearings fell out when the tuner was tightened. I found that you needed the hardened steel ball race washers either side for strength. I had a pack of 10, so I had spares to experiment.
Does the ball bearing (singular) simply sit in between the threaded piece and the inner workings - a spacer I assume from the text?
If so, can I make a similar modification to a different type of tuner on a headless guitar I have (a unit made under licence from a South Korean firm). That is equipped with a tiny handle that is held in storage on the side of the tuning unit magnetically. Many thanks.
