@@axelmerighi I want to start with saying that goes for any guitar. When you tune down the tuner loses a bit of tension, -regardless if equipped with a floyd or maybe a hardtail- and it can get flat really quickly. When you tune it back down and then up again the tuner gets a tighter grip on the string and it will probably stay in tune for longer ;)
I just pulled out my old Kramer with a FL. I used to use 8s when I first got it but have been using hybrid slinkys on my strat for decades. I put some of those on there and the bridge was raised like crazy. I did as shown, lowered the bridge and is now proper. No more high action lol. Thx so much for this video!!!
Thank you!!! Finally I found out what is the parallel bridge. Everywhere I heard "be surw that your bridge is parallel to the body" and nobody showed what does it mean... THANK YOU!
I always use a wooden block that fits between the Floyd in the back and the inside of the guitar body, tune your guitar and then adjust the trem claw until the wooden block just becomes free.. remove it and your trem is set up! One slight caveat is that to get the trem perfectly level will require a certain size bit of wood, different guitars might need different size bits of wood
I tried this today while setting the whole thing up. You can improvise: use coins, business cards, anything you can add/remove height to easily. Unfortunately I don’t know what I did wrong, I kept tightening the claw screws to get the block to fall off, but the screws wouldn’t tighten anymore... sure enough, I removed the block and it went out of tune again.
100 the better way and saves keep adjusting the strings as they pull each other out of tune ,the problems on the video had nothing to do with new strings it is just how a floating bridge works as you tune each string to pitch it lowers the pitch on the others ,blocking the trem stops that and also gets you where you want to be a lot faster
@@159Fender159 You loosen the spring claw to allow the block to fall away not tighten it unless of course you blocked it incorrectly at the wrong side of the sustain block
awesome this sure helped now i can do this to my Fender floyed Rose i was really confused on how to get it to tune back after putting new string on my guitar but this sure saved me thanks
5:49 On my guitars,at that point, I’ll start stretching the strings, divebombing & working the crap out of the tremolo. Then retuning the guitar and repeating the process until the tuning is stable and I can whammy in tune without the nut being locked. Then I’ll lock the nut and do final tune with the fine tuners.
The best Floyd setup I’ve ever came across is one without a locking nut. I used to have a cheap Kramer Pacer (back in the day ;) ). It had an original Floyd bridge without the fine tuners and no locking nut. It was so smooth and you could not pull that thing out of tune...., until you broke a string. Guthrie Govan has a similar setup on his signature Charvels.
Saved me £50 after watching your guitar video its helped me out so much and now ive got a perfectly good to play Jackson guitar thank you so much. Ive given you a subscribe for your help
Great tip! Worked perfect for my Charvel Jackson w/ floating Floyd Rose. Also, saves you about $70 if you give this to some kid at Guitar Center that hasn't a clue.
Rick Smith I feel you I took my jem to get the bridge raised (this was when I didn’t know how just got into the Floyd rose at the time) and they completely messed it up
Thank you much! I was like I want a guitar Mattalica plays. Then I'm home like wtf did I get myself into. Not bad once you understand but I'm still learning and had it for years
i don't think its a good idea, it can cause the 1 E string more easy to break, because the spring tension is too much for 1 E string to handle, when in the tuning process
What if your bridge is still lifting because of too much string tension and you cannot tighten the screws anymore to pull the bridge back down? so far videos have helped me lots thank you!
I noticed you tuned DOWN to the note while tuning. I've always heard and employ coming UP to the note for best results. But that might be for low-end tuners. Thoughts?
Just block the bridge at parallel position with a deck of cards, tune. take off the cards, tighten/loosen the springs until all strings go in-tune again. simpler and faster and more effective method.
1. How is that faster if the bridge is no longer parallel on each side? Mine came from the factory uneven (Low E to High E strings) 2. How in the fuck did you manage enough of a gap to get a deck of cards under the bridge? You dive bombing the trem? 3. Dont shit on proper methods without explaining details of your specific nightmare of a rig.
Same. They didn't address it in this video but it's still an issue with the balancing. When the spring tension is too high on one side, it will pull unevenly on the 3 strings corresponding to which side its on (left/treble screw effects g/b/E, right/bass screw effects e/a/d). Mine were so unbalanced I couldn't get the guitar in tune whatsoever. Figuring out which side is pulling up more by looking at the angle of the floating bridge is key. I recommend loosening the strings & backing both the screws off so you have room to work with. Then slowly bring it up to pitch. If it's still not letting you, observe the angle of the float (when string tension is applied) & adjust spring claw screws accordingly. Repeat until its balanced
If the strings are pulling that hard then you can add a spring to the back. I had to do it with my old Jem7. I used a Tremory spring to it and had no problems since.
If the bridge is parallel to the body that means you can't pull the tremolo "up", only down, right? My bridge is arched slightly downwards and the farthest I can pull the bar "up" is to where the bridge becomes parallel to the body
Add adjusting pickup heights for Floyd rose bridge guitars. Recently I tried to adjust String Action height lower but now when I use my tremolo bar backward the strings are touching my bridge pickups. How can I balance these?
So, why do we Want the bridge pulled higher??? I thought we wanted them parallel with the top edge of the body and bottom edge of the saddle base,,, I just got a LTD GL200 AND it seems that I have a couple of fret edges on the bottom that are hanging up too, like they need refined or finished filed,,,,
Great video but I learned the hard way got a new guitar the floyd was so high in back I tuned it and opened back one spring was off I put it back on and was still high I didn't re tune like idiot I turned and turned finally got it level then put plate back on retuned guitar and then realized now the other side was way down so had to loosen a lot and retuned now good I just hope it's ok that I tightened and loosened so much hope that dont strip the wood or nothing I'm a noob on this let me know since still under warranty thank you
What did i messed up ( 3:55 ) , because everytime i tune the guitar from 6 to 1, i have to start all over from 6 to 1 because when i have 1st string in tune, 6th is dropped again and eventually bridge is facing sky high before locking strings ? I did lower the bridge a little. I cannot see it in eye, but it might not be perfectly straight because i like to keep 6th string a bit higher than 1st and 2nd string. I might need to adjust tension springs but i have no idea what to do. Basic newbie errors and just lack of knowledge. Tips are appreciated so my ESP could be in shape again, thanks :)
what is that tuner? I am looking for a super duper extremely accurate tuner..that shows exactly how many hz or whatever its called... how off it is... i'm also trying to figure out how to raise ever so slight JUST (ONLY) the height of the low E string side of the bridge because there is buzzing ONLY on the low two strings (E and A) on only the frets 1 and two. any other ideas to fix this buzz?
That's the best of setting the level and the 2 srews now I am set but the Earl slick brass gibson style bridge is giving me a headache with the intonation it's the lespaul model by ghs earl slick?
So, domb question just to make sure: My bridge angle is quite high when it's in tune, i should turn the screws clockwise a bit and retune a bit lowe (because lowering the bridge is pulling the strings) the guitar, then repeat untill it's set?
the problem i have when the bridge is lined up with the body the strings touch the frets and i cant figure out how to fix it doesnt matter how i adjust it
Do you think it has to be perfectly flush or just not noticably angled? I try to make it perfectly flush at all times but don't always get it. It's usually slightly off. Is that acceptable or? And it always stays in tune well enough and I got a good whammy range
I don't understand why the springs on my Jackson js32L don't have enough tension, strings always pull the bridge way to high so I have to move the claw almost all the way into the body so the bridge rests into the correct position.
I need some help. My floyd rose is setup with 9-42 gauge strings in e standard tuning like the guitar in this video, except I have a 4 spring setup currently. I want to go down to a 3 spring set up like the one in the video. I removed the 4th spring and set up the remaining 3 springs in the /I\ arrangement. However, when I tightened the claw screws down to get the bridge level and tuned up, my Floyd was still leaning heavily forward toward the pickups. I have tried tightening the claw screws as far as they can go and the bridge still leans forward well above the normal floating position. I also tried the 3 springs arranged evenly like this | | |, but it didn’t work. Any ideas on how I can get a 3 spring setup working with my current string gauge and tuning? Thank you!
If It doesn't return to the same spot, you better inspect the knife edges or posts, If they have some wear probably you'll have to buy a new baseplate or post. Also the Wood around the posts sometimes crack (happens a lot on cheap guitars), If the Wood is cracked a Luthier may be able to fix It.
Yes, you are basically "lengthening" the springs by pulling the claw further from the bridge, but because tension is the same for a given set of strings in a given tuning, the overall length of the springs will resist lengthening, therefore the bridge will be pulled level to the body. You could also try adding a 3rd or 4th spring if you have room in your cavity and can't adjust the claw any more.
".....So that it's parallel to the body" OK but i still haven't understood WHAT should be parallel to the body, the lower part of the plate? The upper part? The saddles?
I can watch all the vids and still never understand this. What's always ending up happening to me was the bridge would go up all the way and then when I'd try to release tension my strings would pop out or break on me. Or while I was tubing they'd pull out the bridge pins and I could just never win. Such a pain in the ass. Someone's gotta show me in person one day cause I miss playing my jackson. Fuck
Hi, thanks for your instructions. I’ve seen all of your videos but still have a problem. I still hearing buzz on the 1st to 3rd fret on my guitar even after doing tross rod adjustment (specially 6&5 string). There is no problem on the other frets. What should i do?!
You probably have some uneven frets, which means you need to have your frets leveled or you need to use high gauge strings and see if that helps. Typically though, if you have certain frets that are buzzing or making different notes (dead frets) you have to file those frets down. That's something that most people don't know how to do and should not do if they have never done before. Guitars suck, they are always in need of repair, especially wood guitars. If I were rich I would buy a carbon fiber guitar, they don't have the problems wooden guitars have.
Guys I need help when changing strings three slipped out of the saddle and now the tremolo has dipped signigicantly. Ive bought new strings and am wondering shall I replace the three first before 're adjusting the tremolo angle. Also how can I stop the strings from slipping out of the saddle lock? Thanks
This was really good, I changed string gauge and I had no idea I need to do so much adjustments. Thanks for helping figuring things out
ditto! Helpful!
Tip: *Always tune UP, to a note, not down* If you must tune down, go past the desired note, then tune it back up to pitch...
Why is that? Just curious
@@axelmerighi I want to start with saying that goes for any guitar.

@@axelmerighi Think of it as cinching up a rope... it's better to have tension on the string rather than them slipping.
Funny that you all say that,
was watching an Eric Johnson instructional DVD recently and he said the same thing!

@@159Fender159 It seems you inserted the block in the wrong side. You have to block the Bridge for no up-action , It shall still dive-bomb.
This also works very well with the Strat-type tremolos,too.

How do we put the springs back on if they come off.
How do you know if you need to replace the springs mine feel floppy
What do you do if the spring tension bolts are all the way in and the bridge is still pulling up
Nice!
What if I wanted to change the tuning of the guitar? Is this all I have to do or do I have to play with the truss rod or anything?
Do I have to change the strings in order to adjust the angle of the bridge?

Where can I get that cover? Fit a Jackson DK2S?
Is it possible to do a video where you explain how to get a Floyd to return to the same spot after pulling up or down?
there's something wrong with it if it doesnt automatically return to the same spot when you release.
If It doesn't return to the same spot, you better inspect the knife edges or posts, If they have some wear probably you'll have to buy a new baseplate or post. Also the Wood around the posts sometimes crack (happens a lot on cheap guitars), If the Wood is cracked a Luthier may be able to fix It.

so if the bridge is floating way to high, do i turn clockwise? I mean mines really high

1) tighten the sadles
2) tighten the screws in the sadles
3) check if the "teeth" in the sadles are not slipping/moving
spring tension is the trick.
Floyd Rose tuning depends for the 80% of how you set the spring tension.
my guitar, i use 5 springs so when i bend, it doesn't pull bridge up.
Saved me 60 bucks 👍
How are you tuning that with the tuning knobs with the neck locks on?
You can just loosen the nut locks without fully taking them off
Can you show the same on an ibanez Rg dx model please 🙏🙏🙏
I despise Floyd Rose guitars, but I like the aesthetics on this guitar. Its real simple and pretty.
Most ESP guitars are like that. Simple & elegant. I love the headstock style as well
