tremoloman:
I had a Squier Standard with the two-point bridge and the sleves came loose, what I did was:
Aquired small pieces of hardwood (a guy I work with does cabinetry work) they were about 6-8" long and about 1/4" square (the size does not matter you will see, but you can also make trem-blocks outa 'em). Then with a razor knife or exacto knife, I shaved slivers off as thin as I could get them. Then I used wood glue (Elmers, etc.) and put a couple in the holes for the sleves - glued to the side (yes, they will, for the most part be flat and the walls of the holes rounded...), once the glue has become tacky enough to hold them slivers of wood, I then installed the sleves (pounded them in gently) using a hammer and a scrap piece of wood. Worked like a champ... just be sure there are no cracks in the wood between the bridge pin holes and the pickup/trem cavities, those must be fixed before you can do this, or they will become loose again. Good luck.
