Let it give it's wonderious powers of wedgeness.

[HorrorshowMusic]

Wait, there are people that keep the back plate on their guitars???

[Metal22God]

when doing this on a floyd rose trem, do you need to wedge the front cavity as well? i mean, does the floyd still float pitch-up when you press it a little harder with the right palm, like if you are palm muting very aggressively?

I wouldn't give my guitar to him. Hes kind of rude. Actually i wouldn't even give my saw to him.

@EivindS94 i stack 10 pennies on top of eachother and tape them with clear tape to fill in the gap for the floyd rose to block it , its a bit of extra effort but it gives you a more fuller tone.

[EivindS94]

@JYZProductions I did not understand the last part of that comment. After "my advice"

[JYZProductions]

@jdalbiac not at all , if you use pennies if you're american or canadian i found i got a more louder fuller tone

[JYZProductions]

@EivindS94 no whoever said that is an idiot or had a really cheap guitar , even though that kind of stuff happens.... my advice , 10 pennies, it requires a bit more effort but its a poor mans brass big block for floyd roses.

[EivindS94]

I've heard that removing all the strings at the same time can cause the neck to break? is this true?

[Krauser1226]

Gonna block off my ZR when I get the chance. I like having the added bonus of increased tuning stability of fine tuners with a fixed bridge. Question though, will I have to redo my intonation and such? It's kind of a pain in the ass. I'll do it anyway but I'm just curious.
