Fender Jag Stang Setup (Part 1)

How the heck do I keep that blasted Fender Dynamic Vibrato in tune? This is how I do it, in a 2 part video consisting of lots of "ums", "ers", "okays" and other not-so-pleasing public speaking problems.

Here, I'll discuss removing the strings, how the rocking bridge and vibrato unit works, and what I go through to put this thing in tune after dismantling it.

I flipped the TAILPIECE AROUND so I can directly feed strings through and screwed it down, taped the bridge no more floating...stays in tune perfectly...

@kishdogg05 Yeah, but it defeats the ability to use the vibrato system, which is more what I was going for.

Great video. Helped my adjust and string up my Mustang guitars for the first time.

Wow, thanks so much for this video. I just got a Jag-stang on eBay and you don't know how much this helped out! THANKS AGAIN bro!

Also for people watching this video, I'd like to reccomend taping up the routes so you don't get dirt from the routes into the pivot.

I also use a piece of polythene (shopping bag), melted to the plate and bar with a lighter so then there is no way any dust or dirt can get in there.

Cool.
