Well it turns out that google is my friend. I found AL(ex)’s article and never realized there was a set screw on the side. Fortunately mine isn’t missing. https://www.jag-stang.com/2007/12/tightening-that-dynamic-vibrato-tremolo-arm/ -
No surprise by my beat to hell used JS didn’t have a trem arm. I’ve tried Strat and Jag trem arms with no success. Any thoughts?

It wouldn’t follow MIJ serial numbers. A “V” serial for Fender is normally used for AVRI guitars. Since it was a prototype, Brooks probably grabbed a V neckplate from the bin as it needed to have some serial number. There is an article posted by a new member, Malecheo. It’s a 1997 article by Larry Brooks who was the builder assigned to the guitar. He talks about this prototype in the article. Fender kept the prototype.

Thanks Malacheo. Great article.
