  • 3 or 4 inches is not enough if you dont want slippage

    go about 6 inches

  • some say this man is jesus. jesus cured a blind man, i think he can handle astygmatism

  • @ShadyStories Ah! I got a RG170DX just to avoid having to deal with a Floyd Rose. Sadly, though, now I wanted a piezo on my bridge and I can only find it in a Floyd Rose bridge. I did not purchase it YET so im not really an authority on tuning them but it sounds like you should wind the fine tune down, turn the rough tuners up, and THEN finetune it when they arent tightened all the way but somewhat in the middle. Again, this is only from observing Floyd Roses and im sure someone can answer beter

  • Can you guys please help me?

    I just got an Ibanez RG350DX and I think it uses the Tremolo system as well.

    When I tune my guitar and it goes out of tune, I tighten the screws on the place where I strum right? What happens if they're tightened all the way and the guitar untunes itself?

    Do I start this process over again or what?

    Help please ~ Thanks

  • whered you get that Charvel?

  • What if I wanna tune the guitar a step down? Should I screw on those to keep the whammy vertical?

  • @rama6maiden you'll burn in hell!!!

  • this video its good , jesus teaches how to doit! thanks jesus
