Drop D-Tuning


I was wondering if anybody knew a way to install some kind of device for the JEM7WV that could detune the low E string a whole step down. I know that EVH makes the D-Tuna product, but it doesn't fit on the JEM b/c it's designed for Floyd Rose tremolos and the JEM's fine tuners get in its way. If anybody knows about a product or a place that can be installed to do this, it would be of great help for me to know. Thanks

Re: Drop D-Tuning


You'd have to also use something to restrict your trem to dives, 'cause dropping the E to D will make all the other strings go sharp.

A Hipshot Tremsetter might help too, at least it did on my JS100 with the f****n' Lo-TRS

Re: Drop D-Tuning


hi,
i'm assuming that your guitar has a lo-pro edge. i am working on a design. it's almost there but i don't have the time right now to finish it.
what i have done is replace the lo-pro with an edge and add a hipshot tremsetter. put a modified d-tuna on and i am good to go.
