It blows my mind that only 77 people have clicked the "like" button. Brother, this is just the perfect information that I've needed for so, so long. I can't thank you enough... THANK YOU SO MUCH! You have improved my life by taking the time and effort in posting this tutorial. I am truly in your debt man!
Thanks brother. I'm glad that you found it helpful. You know nowadays people just NEED to be liked, but some of us just want to be happy playing guitar because do it out of passion. I'm preparing more videos like this so stay tune. If you need help just ask ok. Take care!!!
I have searched hundreds or videos on this and this has been the absolute best one I’ve seen and to make things easier I have the Damien platinum version with the bat inlays and now I know how to keep it working properly. I also loved how you explained different ways to attach the strings to the head stock…you just taught me more about restringing a guitar in 42 minutes than I’ve learned in 25 years thank you so much!
Al, fantastic job on the entire setup/explanation for a guitar with a Floyd Rose. Greatly appreciate you taking the time and sharing all that you learned in setting up this type of guitar. Now I am going try mine for the first time!!! 🤟🏻
Thank you, mate. This is by far the best video I have seen on this subject. Not only do you explain in detail how to perform the set-up, but you also explain why the certain steps are taken and the effect that each step has. Absolutely brilliant video. I am going to subscribe to your channel. Thank you again.
I used the awesome information in this video to setup my floyd equipped bc rich warbeast, tuned to drop c. It sounds and plays amazing. I cant thank you enough for the time and effort you put into making this video. Priceless information! 🤟
Thank you man! You gave me the "Volta's Key" . The more detailed video I've ever seen. Cheers from Italy! Yours is the 1st channel I subscribed . Respect ! \m/
Thank you for an excellent tutorial. This covered all aspects to setup and in great detail. I didn't realize all the things to be checked and adjusted. This was a very understandable process and I thank you again! Cheers!
Thank You 🙏 so much,sir!!! I have learned so many things about my Floyd Rose system today, and other things that I thought I knew,lol!! Amazing tutorial!!! Stay safe and healthy my friend!! ☮️❤️☮️
You're the best, man. No pretense or forcing us to hear your playing throughout the video, thorough and pragmatic. Now I will dutifully seek out videos of you playing and subscribe to do my meager part. You rule.
Thank you brotherrr!! I appreciate that!!! Man I almost don't upload videos playing here on YT because I mostly play covers and they are annoying with the copyright. I play more on Instagram and do other stuff in spanish though. My profile is @alverdura
Thanks so much for this tutorial.. the most detail I found on youtube so far. I usually play more jazz than rock with my semi hollow guitar and sometimes with my stratocaster. Several months ago I bought my first floyd rose guitar online to be able to imitate Satriani's and Vai's style but ended up in frustration about the setting up, apparently, until I found your complete tutorial. Thanks heaps mate... keep the good work.
This guy is badass👍🏼. Thank you Sir for all your years of technical and procedural knowledge. Your video is a life saver and super helpful. Thank you for all the effort you put into your video. Take care, God bless you and please continue.
Thank you! This is an amazing video,the best explanations, although I knew a few things about guitar setup this video thought me so much! I will save this video and,when I'll gather the courage,will start setting up one of my guitars! Thank you!!!
Hey just watched you Floyd Rose video, I thought it was very in-depth and insightful how you explained the use for the fine tuners. This was a great tutorial, as you went over every part of the set up, delivering easy to understand methods and the subtitles and diagrams helped as well.
Can’t thank you enough for the extensive information that you have shared with me. Since the early 80’s I’ve been using whammy’s and also self taught myself on adjusting the “Rose” but your in-depth presentation is one of the best out there. And as far as your English I believe it was just fine! Regards,Stella blu
Thank you very much, I've been watching dozens of videos to set up my FR guitar and this is by far the best one, even though it could be even better, but that's just to make a negative criticism. I feel reassured now, and I can safely clean and make adjustments on my LTD MH-401QM FR guitar, thank you, thank you :)
This is a very good and detailed tutorial. I was completely lost and scared on how to setup my guitar. I didn't even know that the bridge had to be parallel to the body, mine was tiled towards the neck a lot. I also didn't know anything about action or intonation. I found this very helpful. Much more helpful than some of the higher viewed videos. Very good job
Wow! This is the best video to learn, clear and so helpfull. Thank you very much. Wow, de loin le meilleur tuto sur le sujet même pour un francophone comme moi, merci beaucoup!!!
Thank you so much, sir! My first guitar has a Floyd Rose bridge, and today I not only changed strings on a guitar for the first time, but now I know how everything works!
Thank you very much man for this wonderful description I lost two guitars because they have a problem with the bridge and now I got another guitar and by mistake, I changed the string and never come perfect but when I watched your video it help and I realize I'm going to fix my guitar by my own without being worried about anything so thank you very much.
You're very welcome my friend!!! I know the feeling, I screwed my guitar up when I was 13 years old and took me years to figure how everything actually worked (this was in the early 90s of course, no internet) 🤣. Enjoy!!
Just picked up an older Washburn MG30 with floyd rose setup...I followed your instructions to the letter and I got one awesome sounding axe...man I have to tell you I know everything about the floyd rose thanks to you...killer video...if anybody is looking for instruction on setting one of these up this is the video to watch nothing else needed to do it right...thank you very much for putting it all together and sharing. Great personality too! Take care
That was awesome! I've been playing guitar and bass for 30 years and have done a version of this (intonation, string and pick-up height) on my basses but never on my Floyd Rose guitars. What a great tutorial! Thank you so much. Oh, and the English was great as well :)
WOW You know this video is informative and this guy really knows his stuff because it only has 3.9k likes at 115k views. An easy way is not presented; just the correct way. Thanks!
so far, this is the only video on the subject. thank you so much! i have a Westone Spectrum FX with a Bendmaster Deluxe bridge and it sounded soo bad until now, especially after the 12th fret. Thanks to you, I can finally play the whole guitar :')
Much appreciated, my buddy loaned me his guitar, and it's like this set up you show, the first time I used Floyd Rose, and was like WTF...now I got it. Thanks.
I would have never thought of using posits to block the tremolo. I’m not in short supply of those. It’s amazing how you find out useful information unexpectedly
I just bought a Schecter C1 FRS Platinum that has just about the same configuration as what you're setting up here. This is my first Floyd Rose and the factory setup is a bit off, especially the tension on the bridge. I was pretty stoked to find a detailed video using basically the same guitar! Thanks for this!!!
That was an excellent video. Ive seen a lot of set up videos but you explained things that i didnt know why i was supposed to do certain things. Thank you very much and your english was perfect. I bought a tool to let me do the intonation under string tension that works pretty good so that made intonation easier but i dont know if i can mention the name. Thanks again for your video.
Man, thank you! I’ve just spent about 5 hours with movie and the guitar and finally it sounds as I always wanted it to be after, attention, 10 years. Thank you one more time!
Thanks man, I bought and setup my guitar for my first time, it felt pretty daunting at times to even unscrew ANYTHING on it. Had the problem of my strings laying on top of my pickups lol was sooo frustrated I felt like tossing the whole thing out the window. Thanks to you I can practice now with a smile, thanks again!!!
I've been playing guitar for 37 years and I can't even believe how drastic a difference in playability, resonance, and overall performance that all of these adjustments have made. Playing guitars a half turn of the truss rod looser than they should have been is like playing with bricks tied to your fingers lol. Shred City here we come! Can't thank you enough!
Thank you so much for your efford on this video. It helped so much! Yesterday I bought my first floyd rose guitar ever and with your video I manged to change the string gauge, tune it down to D-Standard and set it up properly. Thank you! Keep going on with your videos!
I have a tool-tip for you which might help a lot during the intonation process: the ibanez ejk1000 intonation tool. It is a bit pricey (41€ in Germany but it should be a one-time investment) but it is super precise and the whole intonation took me about 10 minutes. I had to file it a little bit down in order to fit into the notch, but as it is made of aluminum this wasn't a big deal. One big advantage is that you don't need to put out the tension of the string: you put the tool onto the saddle, then intonate, tune the string back to pitch, intonate again... and when the string is perfectly intonated you just tighten the screw of the saddle and remove the tool :)
Awesome! Thanks for this!!! I only have 1 suggestion. & that is to stretch the strings immediately after putting them on. It might help to reduce the frustration of the new strings constantly going out of tune. Other than that, you did well! Happy Playing, Friend & Thanks Again :)
Thanks Al this was great ... also if it's a bolt on neck make sure the bolts are tight .. and under the nut locks, the nut has 2 screws make sure they are snug too. Rock On ♫ ♫ ♫ !
This is simply the best and most thorough tutorial on Floyd Rose setup! I just finished my very first build of my own custom guitar (I bought Ibanez-style DIY kit from US), and this guide helped me to perform the final steps very fast and efficiently! Thanks a lot, Al, for sharing your experience!
Hi sorry to bother u. I just bought a Ibanez RG IR20E Metal edge the tremelo is a little different but same basic concept. Can I use this video to set mine up . I've never owned a Floyd Rose Bridge pro before but need to learn all I can .
I'm fs beginner. I was very confused at first. I listened to your explanation, followed it one by one, and now I am a fan of fs. even though I'm a guitar beginner. If know the strengths of the fs guitar,I don't need another type of guitar. thanks for your video. already subscribed. Do it too or not. have a happy time friend.
Awesome tutorial, very thorough. Loved the 3 string tying examples, i have always done type b, i'm going to try type a, your preferred way next time. I have been putting off intonation for about 5 years now, i just wish i could put up a "30 minutes later" sign and have it all done... Thanks for the inspiration mate!
Thank you for the detailed video! It is almost impossibble the make a video that covers all points of setting up a guitar expecially with a floyd rose bridge. I would add some personal points to the topic: 1. If the nut is too high the main problem is that the notes freted at the 1. and 2. fret will go very sharp, they are usually a bit sharp (you would need tempered nut and tempered frets to avoid this) but with a perfect nut hight it is more torelable. 2. Truss rod, just to clarify it: it does practically what you said: it counters the string pull effect on the neck. What it really does: if you thingten it it brings the fretboard closer to the strings, if you loosen it it will bring the fretboard away from the strings. The neck it self is usually rockhard maple/mahagony the fretboard is much thinner and usually softer, the truss rod could never put a bow to the whole neck it just adjust the curve of the fretboard, this is why adjusting the truss rod has so little effect on the 1-3 frets and on the 15-24 frets. 3. Micro tilt does what you said and this helps (mostly) to get better action on the 17-24 frets. 4. Exotic string winding is not that important with a locking nut, but I found the best method the "John Carruthers" way, just search for it, it is another way of locking the strings to the tunning pegs. 5. Forget any mesurments. I know this is not really a help for total beginners, but later on you should never ever measure anything on a guitar, just go by feel.
@@alverduratonejunkiealveram1017 It was everything i needed lol. Ive been playing guitar for a while now but i just recently got one with a floyd rose. I also got it off my drummer buddy so it wasnt properly set up.. funny story actually his mom bought him the guitar (dime dean razorback) when he was younger to try & get him to stop drumming but he just loves drums too much lol. So i got it off him for $700
@@alverduratonejunkiealveram1017 A bit of mechanical aptitude helps, but as you say, no better way to learn than doing. We all learned much of what we know from someone else. ;) Thanks again. Peace, Love and Guitar Power!!!
First time operating a guitar with a Floyd Rose here Thank you so much! If it weren't for you're video, I would have broke all my strings by now. Very helpful!
1000s of people are putting string on Floyds the wrong way... Me included.. what a God send!!!! cheers man. great job.

Loved the 3 string tying examples, i have always done type b, i'm going to try type a, your preferred way next time. I have been putting off intonation for about 5 years now, i just wish i could put up a "30 minutes later" sign and have it all done...
Thanks for the inspiration mate!
Thanks mate!! Yeah intonation is the hardest on a Floyd 🤣
😂

It is almost impossibble the make a video that covers all points of setting up a guitar expecially with a floyd rose bridge. I would add some personal points to the topic:
1. If the nut is too high the main problem is that the notes freted at the 1. and 2. fret will go very sharp, they are usually a bit sharp (you would need tempered nut and tempered frets to avoid this) but with a perfect nut hight it is more torelable.
2. Truss rod, just to clarify it: it does practically what you said: it counters the string pull effect on the neck. What it really does: if you thingten it it brings the fretboard closer to the strings, if you loosen it it will bring the fretboard away from the strings. The neck it self is usually rockhard maple/mahagony the fretboard is much thinner and usually softer, the truss rod could never put a bow to the whole neck it just adjust the curve of the fretboard, this is why adjusting the truss rod has so little effect on the 1-3 frets and on the 15-24 frets.
3. Micro tilt does what you said and this helps (mostly) to get better action on the 17-24 frets.
4. Exotic string winding is not that important with a locking nut, but I found the best method the "John Carruthers" way, just search for it, it is another way of locking the strings to the tunning pegs.
5. Forget any mesurments. I know this is not really a help for total beginners, but later on you should never ever measure anything on a guitar, just go by feel.
Thanks brother!!!!! Totally agree!
Incredibly helpful man, greatly appreciate it. I feel like I could apply for guitar tech jobs after watching this video
LOL. I just wanted to show all the things you need to know to setup your instrument

It was everything i needed lol. Ive been playing guitar for a while now but i just recently got one with a floyd rose. I also got it off my drummer buddy so it wasnt properly set up.. funny story actually his mom bought him the guitar (dime dean razorback) when he was younger to try & get him to stop drumming but he just loves drums too much lol. So i got it off him for $700

Damn bro. This video is saving my life right now for real....Thank you for struggling so we don't have to. 🙏
LOL, it's a pleasure man! Now I almost do this for a living and it's so rewarding. Happy Holidays!!!
Very nice. Thanks.
You're welcome
Setting Up A Floyd Rose (an exercise in patience) Thanks so much!
You're welcome!! Yeah you need some patience to do that, specially with the bridge intonation.
@@alverduratonejunkiealveram1017 A bit of mechanical aptitude helps, but as you say, no better way to learn than doing. We all learned much of what we know from someone else. ;) Thanks again. Peace, Love and Guitar Power!!!
@@therealunklefreaky That is correct my friend. Rock on!!
