How much can the pitch be raise with the Lo-Pro edge?


It seems that my Floyd Rose Pro can't raise the pitch as much as the TRS
I think I need to remove some more wood from the cavity but how much?

When you pull the bar of your Lo-Pro Edge on your Jem, what is the maximum pitch that can be raise on the high E?

that would depend on the setup of the trem...action, trem angle, etc.

My LPE on my DBK can pull up notes a full fourth, five frets.....but the Edge on my RG550 can pull notes up a fifth, seven frets.....I don't understand why this it, but it's pretty cool to be able to do that when you are tuned to Drop-C....I thought that might have something to do with it, but who knows?

Lo-pros are supposed to be set up to a bit over a fourth on the g-string as far as I know...

on the G string, I can pull up to 5 frets (g->c)
but on the High E string, I can pull only 2 frets! (e->f#)

is this normal?

You can dive bomb a low E till the strings fall off the neck, but the high E will only drop maybe 6-7 steps? Same principal with a pull-up. The larger the string the further it will change in pitch.
