Lo-Pro7 setup on RG7620


Hi everyone. Ever since I had my guitar re-set up a few years ago for 10s, it's never seemed quite right. I played my friends JPM model guitar and was amazed at how much easier and smoother the trem moved.

I'm having a really hard time getting the andgle to be right -- how many springs should I be using with 10-46+59 (D'addario strings)?

I tried the block on side of trem only allowing downward movement (per floydupgrades.com making it look easy) then I tried the method described here of blocking the other side...so I could get it set up right. Neither method produced the correct result. I also have 4 springs in right now :-( (When I tried it the FR way, I ended up with too little andle, with the Jemsite way, too much angle.)

I also wish I had a reference picture of how far in the screws are....I'll post up some pics tonight when I get back home.

Thanks for any advice / suggestions / pictures.

-Matt
