Bridge broblem for electric guitar with standard tremolo.?

Question

i have guitar with standard tremolo and i just put new strings on and when i tighten them the bridge pulls out and the notes keep going down. how can i prevent that?

Answer 1

there is a cover on the middle of your guitar in the back. open it. if your looking at it from bottom to top, you will see that at the very top of the opening, there are 2 screws. you will have to tighten them.

Answer 2

are the tremelo springs attached to the bridge?
