Hello, I have a Lo-TRS trem. I am using 09-42 and guitar has 2 springs on it angled in this way / \. It is better to use this config or the standard | | ? I really like how loose is the use of the bar but the disadvantage is that the trem goes dows so easily during palm muting. If a use 2...

Hey people, Suppose an Edge tremolo. Suppose I have two sets of springs, same measurement, but one set has longer springs. If I use the set with the shorter springs, obviously I'd have to unscrew the claw to achieve the same tension to balance the strings at the other side. But if I use this...

Hey guys, My deep apologies for being unable to find the answer in the threads, and having tried everything and everywhere else to find out what's wrong. I think this may even be my first post on Jemsite. I've been experiencing something with my Floyd like I never have before... It's tuning...

Ok.I just bought a new set of strings. Dunlop Mediums. I have been using these for a while and they are great. But something weird has happened tonight while changing the strings. Everytime I tune up to pitch, I strum and then they all go out of tune. I have stretched the snot out of these...

Hey guys, I have an Ibanez SAS32EX which I play daily. I seem to have stumbled upon an issue when tuning down to C# standard to play some Between the Buried and Me. The issue is simple, my guitar feels very tight. In C# standard, it feels like my friends RG that's in E. That can't be right, it...

I tuned my guitar up properly and it was fine but now there is a lot of fret buzz which was not there before I tuned up. The action is at an almost identical level but the trem...

I got an rg with an original edge trem, and it was set up for e standard with very very light strings. im changing brand, going to heavier guage strings and lowering the tuning a full step. ive changed the three springs to be /|\ - but even when i screw the claw screws all the way in, as far...

Heyy, So my friend has an Ibanez RGR420ex, which has the Edge III tremolo system. It's not my problem because I have the S320 with the Zr Tremolo. So we decided to setup the guitar, as I am pretty knowledgeable when it comes to guitar setups and such. We bought some .011-.054 strings...

Hey, all. You know who I am. Yes, you've seen my type before--the shameless hit and runner who's going to post his problem, get some good answer, type "THANKS DUDES!!!!11" and then go my merry way without a thought for my saviours. But at least I'm honest about it :D So, cutting to the...

Good day fellows, I have a little "neck bow, freting-out" issue. I have a UV777 bk of the 2001 vintage, great guitar all of these years, my main girl. Just a bit more background I live in south Georgia, which means brutal hot to high twenties. I noticed probably a couple of days ago that...
