Floyd Rose vs. Kahler tuning problems with Kahler

[MetallicBill]

I own both, now.... the guitar I got tonight is an early NJ Warlock but with licensed Floyd Rose instead of Kahler, and my USA Bich has a fulcrum Kahler model. To tune, set the Low E first then hold at the 5th fret and work your way down to get them to sound in unison, going back a fret before the High E...simple tuning method!

You Sound Like Jimi Hendrix!!!

@DylanBStringer91 Only a deaf person would say that.

[DylanBStringer91]

@notepool2 Or A Person With Working Ears Would Say It!!!

[notepool2]

@DylanBStringer91 I meant no disrespect - I just don't find any resemblance to Hendrix there so I thought you were joking! I guess it takes all sorts (of ears).

@notepool2 Listen To Jimi Hendrix Play The Star Spangled Banner At Woodstock And Then Listen To This Video!!! You'll See What I Mean!!!

ok first of all, learn how to use your tremolo. i understand this is purposely done, but jerking it around like that is definitley not gonna keep in tune. and besides, what kind of nut do you have on that guitar? does it lock? dont think so.

I never trusted any guitar with a Kahler but there are only 3 trems i'd ever even get near. The vintage Fender Trems the old Gibson Vibrola's and the Floyd Rose DOUBLE LOCKING trems.

i bet a million dollars that you dont have it set up correctly

[kochenderfer666]

im afraid to get in there to check it out. ive never done that to a Kahler like this one

[guithero11]

@kochenderfer666 yea bro there are a lot of parts lol

[wammiworld]

That is FR tremolo made for Floyd Rose by Kahler. It is a Floyd rose design. Also I do not see any stringlock or locknut. If there is none that is why you are out of tune all the time. Ever change the springs? email me and we will get it back on track.

[kochenderfer666]

There is no access panel on the back and ive never removed a Kahler so im afraid to change the springs.

now there is a stringlock and its in working condition

@kochenderfer666 Don't do it yourself, unless you take off all 6 strings to replace them, the bridge and strings are SELF CONTAINED in a two part section so the bridge can operate...it's a dandy thing Gary came up with!

[kochenderfer666]

i was trying to prove that kahler tremolo systems go out of tune during dive bombs

@kochenderfer666

From what we can see and hear (unfortunately), you can barely hold that guitar, let alone tune it or play it. I blame the player in this video, not the guitar.

It's like blaming the pencil for your bad spelling. FAIL!!!

Do yourself and the people that have to hear you play a favor and get your guitar set up by Wammiworld or any qualified guitar tech...Please!

Oh man that really got out of tune. Or is it because you were trying to bend the heck out of the strings?
