DOES THE FLOYD STAY IN TUNE?

[amihol]

@NickolozMcCool

No one tremolo stays in tune 100% but this works pretty well. It's a original Germany made Schaller tremolo. By hard using for a longer period of time the E1 string goes the most out of tune.

[Gusztiavo]

is this a floating trem or just for dives?

[amihol]

@Gusztiavo

It's a floating tremolo but you can play pull ups just moderate because this guitar does not have big cut behind the tremolo. If you want to raise the pitch more, you have to tilt floyd forward. In this position guitar action would be some higher.

Do you know if you have to modify the guitar's body to install a floyd rose?

[amihol]

@maiden06660

Yes. The mounting studs (2 big screws, on which floyd tremolo lies) are more far away than in standard tremolo:

1. standard (55mm),

2. floyd (74mm).

For this reason you have to enlarge also the bridge cut on the pickguard.

If you want to order new pickguard by Warmoth, they have two bridge cut options: 1. standard, 2. floyd tremolo.

Crazy playing, but you appear to have misplaced your trousers.

Nice chops and nice guitar, just need to get some jeans man.

[TheTrooper711]

can you buy a guitar like this anywhere??

[satjathamma]

@NickolozMcCool thats what floyds are for, it's virtually impossible to get them out of tune,

I installed on on my first guitar, but I remember allways loosing the small scruws,

I don't think I would want one again, but it looks awsome
