Need a second oppinon about trem springs. Just got this baby of teh bay RG7620BK. Guy had it strung with 10-46 + 56 for the low B. I switched it over to 9-46+56 for the low B. Bridge looks like this: when trem claw looks like this: Im going to go out on a limb and say that something...

As the title suggests i tapped out the screw holes in my RG 320ex with some dowel as about 4 months ago i had installed a Tremol-no ad accidentally stripped the screw holes out that held in the trem claw screws. I took the cheapskate option and filled them holes with tooth picks, but after a...

I bought this used from a guy a couple of months ago for my project guitar but turns out i'm not going to end up using it at all. The Good: i attached a bunch of pictures here so you can see all the stuff you'll get. they're not pictured but i can throw in a trem claw, screws, and 5 springs if...

hey guys i need some help with setting up the string tension for hybrid strings. Would I have to change the pattern of the springs (eg have one on the low end and two on the high end) or is it fine with and even amount on both sides? thanks.

No longer fixing this up as a project since I picked up another 7. The body at present is painted CAT yellow with a tad bit of clear on the front I put on to test. It does have the trem claw on it. US only, $60.00 plus shipping. Any questions just PM me. I do accept paypal...

After much consideration I decided on a DNA swirl for my 777SK. Just got everything back... As shown in the photo, I had a plate made to mount the controls and will use an NOS clear pickguard (thanks Rich!) BEFORE AFTER

The previous owner of my UV7BK had 10's, and the action was pretty high, he used 4 springs. Now I'm making the setup with 9's, and I can't low the action as much as I want. I guess the bridge is too raised, but I'm not sure. I tried all the spring configs, with 3 and 4 springs, and the best was...

I ordered two black Schaller Trem's when Floyd's were on back order a few months ago. I found some Floyd's from Carvin so I never used these. One is still in the sealed bag it came in new, and the other is also new and never been used. They are black. Asking $150 each for them. Comes with trem...

I just found out about the Tremolo-No and I've got a couple questions for those who have used it on an RG. When installed, can you treat your guitar just like a real hard tail? Can you take the locking nut off at the neck and not have the screws in? I just bought my first hard tail a couple...

hello all! ok im sure you're tired of these rg350 wiring troubleshooting posts, but Im tired of yelling out m-f to my guitar. anyway... Im trying to change out the terrible powersound bridge pickup with a dimarzio tone zone. I put the black and white of the dimarzio where the white bridge wire...

Just about done with this guitar, swirled it for a customer. Thought you guys might enjoy the pics!

OK, so I'm about to perform my first pup replacement. I'm taking the V8 out of my beloved stock 2000 RG570GN and slapping an EVO2 Bridge in there. I have several different wiring diagrams from varying sources (and with wildly varying degrees of quality; from Ibanez' stock pickup...

I've been using EB 10's since I got my RG550 and recently I've been finding them really tense and bending is not the easiest thing in the world (I've tried stretching them A LOT). I was just wondering how much of a difference there is with 9's rather than 10's. Would 9's feel looser and help...

Ok, I nabbed this back a while ago, planning on having Patrick or someone finish it for me. It's been hanging up in my studio for a while now. In light of me planning on nabbing the RG-ART in another thread, I need to move this so I can have some cash to calm the wife's upcoming coronary. :)...

After being on this site for many years and never thought of owning a Jem, I am now a proud owner of an '89 JEM777VBK (since I didn't win a JEM7VBK on the last contest :P). Scored it from a guy who lives < 5 miles (@ 8km)from me on friday. We met up half-way on thursday so I could check out the...
