  • great stuff. has helped a lot of peolpe. May i ask if you have an idea on stripped thread in tremolo blocks. ? What to do /

  • @stratnuts What you mean exactly?

  • @FruduaTv waht I need is advice on my e-mail about having NO THREADS LEFT IN MY TREMOLO BLOCK on a Vintage STRAT. Options are too many for me to know what to do for the best.I would like to here your comments on this subject as it must have happened before .

  • @stratnuts Not sure what you mean... no threads of shich type?

  • Thanks for great resource. I would like to ask a quick question. My problem is: regardless of the gauge I use, my low-E string is flappy. It goes lower pitches and sounds out of tune. Kind a tension problem I guess, it gives a sound like "booeing" instead of a consistent E note.I use .56 gauge (sometimes .60) low E string and I also play with standard tuning. Any idea about the cure?

    Thanks in advance

  • @zifirblues Does the problem raise both if you play a fretted note or open string?
