[@gwoody4003]

Yeah man I been changing them one string at a time, snapping the high E a third of the time and then a few instances just dealt with the bridge having a lean on it. I was to the point of thinking of asking the guy at the music shop if I could watch him do it lol. I don't know why I didn't think to check KZbin.

[@WarlordImperius]

@@ManBunMetalHead important question, shoudnt you do all this in the playing position? the position will change things and you'd end up out of tune again because all this is based on a guitar laying flat right? So if I do this, gotta have playing position or what am I missin?

[@slashssnakepit4444]

@@WarlordImperiusthe bridge is being balanced by the springs countering the string tension. Changing the position of the guitar makes no difference, if it did, you would have to stand perfectly still to play and nobody would want a Floyd Rose on their guitar.

Dude I’m a year late but thank you so much for this video. I have a schecter that ive been playing on for a couple years and got familiar with its floyd, it never gave me tuning issues. I got a new ltd arrow 1000 and it came with 9-42s every time I would precision tune it would go flat. So I decided to just tackle it head on cause I couldn’t figure it out. Loosened all the tension and just went from tight springs loosening it how you explained in the video. Worked like a charm and I’m in tune now. I’ll have to do it all over again when my new strings come in but totally worth it. Thanks again. Subbed

[@RotterStudios]

I LOVE THEM! I float all of mine. Think of the Floyd Rose like a draw bridge. The strings hold the trem up...like a draw bridge. Each string holds roughly 1/6 of the tension. This is why if one string breaks, it's all out of tune.

[@mattb6646]

Well they don't hold 1/6 considering each string is a different diameter and holds more or less tensile strength, but yes it's the right theory

It still rides a smidge high, but I'm not nit picky. The strings are staying put and I'm happy now.

[@TheDictatorsKingdom]

If you're having them pop out of the bridge then you need to tighten the nuts that press into the strings more, I've had guitars that have bridges with rust and they lock up and it makes you think their in fine, give em a good turn, make sure theres a firm lock on the strings

You need to mention decking your bridge from the back changed my life. Loosen the claw until the back of the bridge sits a little bit above the body and something to deck the tremolo in the back then tune to pitch and start tightening the claw until the tremolo blocker falls off and have your fine tuners at 50%

[@thatchris8395]

[@gypsydimitri]

Question: I have a fully floating Floyd Rose 1000 (the guitar is a brand new Charvel) and it goes out of tune every time i bend on the 22nd fret. I have tried everything to solve my problem... the bridge is perfectly in level with the body, the string blocks are in perfect condition, there are no pieces of broken string in the saddle, everything is tightened on the bridge and on the locking nut. I have changed strings i think about a week ago, so the strings are new and properly set in the bridge. Have you ever had similar problems and what would you recommend me to do? And yes, the guitar stays in tune when i do divebombs, it only goes out of tune when i bend on the high e string above the 19th fret.

[@seinfan9]

Sounds like an intonation issue. Check to make sure your open string tones match what you see when you strum on the 12th fret. If not matching, you have to move the saddle that holds the string. If 12th fret is sharper, move the saddle towards the bottom of the guitar. If the 12th fret is flatter, move the the saddle closer to the neck.

[@seinfan9]

Thinking about your comment one more time, the bending action down low is actually pulling the bridge up. I don't think there's any way around that. It's just a drawback to the design you have to live with.

[@brayan_lopes]

What could be causing my floyd rose to be so stiff? It's not blocked in the back and taking a spring out (it has 4) didn't work. I am not able to do dive bombs because my whammy bar simply doesn't dive much. I don't know what the problem is.

When leveling a bridge do you then have to mess with the intonation? I have a floyd on my Jackson JS32 where the bridge is a bit high. I want to fix this but the intonation is good and I am afraid that if I level the bridge I have to intonate the guitar. Also if I have to intonate it again, is it difficult?

[@ManBunMetalHead]

It depends on how much it's currently out of level, but there's a chance you would need to adjust the intonation. I do have a video on that if you decide to try it out, kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZu5cmN4gNmkq5o. It's not that hard, just takes some patience. But really, the exact angle of your bridge doesn't matter that much as long as it doesn't affect the playability of the guitar. It just looks nicer when it's flat.

[@DB-eh5bs]

@@ManBunMetalHead Ok, I might look into it when changing strings. I play with the factory strings currently which might not be ideal. Plus the slightly high bridge doesn’t really affect my playing so I guess I might leave it as it is.

[@DB-eh5bs]

​@@ManBunMetalHead Hey! I have one more question about my floyd. Is it possible for me to play at Eb tuning temporarily without messing everything up? I've actually tried tuning down a half step with the guitar once and it worked perfectly and because my bridge was a bit high at E standard it didn't really mess up my bridge all that much at Eb tuning. The intonation seemed to be perfect but I got afraid that my guitar would get all messed up so I tuned up again. So would it affect the guitar in the long run if I tuned down temporarily for some songs?

[@ManBunMetalHead]

Yeah, don't worry about it. If you make drastic tuning changes you might notice the relief in the neck change, but it would probably take a lot and certainly wouldn't damage the guitar.

[@brettfields112]

So in standard tuning my bridge is flat I tune down to d standard and it goes in the body what should I do

[@ManBunMetalHead]

You'll have to let out spring tension

[@Just_a_metal_head_]

What should I do when the screws don't move? I detuned all the strings and the bridge is now straight. But when I tune up the strings the bridge is extremely high

[@ManBunMetalHead]

If the screws are turned all the way in, sounds like you might need to add another spring or 2. Or change to beefier springs.

[@Butt-Head9]

@@ManBunMetalHead I had to do the same on my Jackson Js32q, i use Ernie ball skinny top heavy bottom(10-52) i was wondering does it help with tuning stability?

[@H3mgurung]

I have an ibanez rg with edge tremolo with very good tuning stability, just wish I could change strings without adjusting back springs

[@seinfan9]

Pretty sure that is going to be the case with any Floyd Rose bridge. New strings introduce a variation of tension that will throw the bridge off balance.

[@fendergibson2615]

what if: the spring claws have been fully driven in and there is no available slot for additional spring, and the bridge is still sticking high... what can I do? I switched to slinky strings already but I still get the same problem

I would like to ask for some help jaja :c my guitar is a Jackson performer from 94, the screws on the back are all fooked and everytime I try to tune her it keeps getting loooooow and loooow, so even if I try to increase the springs tension it is still going low, thus, I have to keep increasing the pegboxtension and my bridge its almost 180 degrees jajaj ): In that case wtf can I do??

[@cameronpringle2392]

So I’ve put thicker gauge strings on to tune to drop c. Can’t get the bridge flush with the body of the guitar (claw is already and far up as it can go and I can’t get it to go further) Does this mean I need springs with more tension/more springs? And also would I need to adjust the truss rod if I put springs on with more tension? Thankyou

[@ManBunMetalHead]

Yes, it does sound like you'll want to add another spring or buy a set of stiffer springs. It sounds like there will be a good chance you'll have to adjust the truss rod as well.

[@ShadowMoto08]

@@ManBunMetalHead Okay thanks 👍

[@littlegoose9860]

I leveled my Floyd Rose bridge recently using a small level on my guitar's body on either side of the bridge, got it level on the floor, then placed the level on top of either side of the FR bridge with the strings tensioned and in standard tune. I made many spring/tuning adjustments, but to get the level on either side of the FR bridge to match what I saw on the guitar body, my spring screws are now kind of wonky. The bass side is screwed in more than the treble side. The angle of the spring plate is closer to 70° vs 90° - how bad is this and why? You mention keeping that plate straight and doing more or less equal turns for each screw. I'm using 3 springs - they are on the 3 inner hooks, one extends directly down to the center hole of the bridge/block, the outer springs attach to the outer holes of the bridge/block, leaving one hole empty between center and outer holes. The guitar seems to play ok but it and the FR system are new to me and I'm not sure how it should be.

[@littlegoose9860]

I went ahead and redid this keeping the screws equal. It seems good, the 3 springs are now equally tensioned more or less (based on screw length), and the bridge is more or less level by eye - didn't use a level this time. I watched another video mentioning springs and his screws were more or less equal too (spring plate also at 90°) - so I figured this must be important. I'm not sure how I wound up so off balance.

[@ManBunMetalHead]

Glad to hear you got it figured out. Using a level might be a little too precise for a guitar bridge.

[@ManBunMetalHead]

You might want to look into adding another spring, or swapping the springs out with a stiffer set.

[@r2anura160]

Hey my floyd rose sits in high and the springs are almost touching the wood what do i do?? restring the strings?? or see a guitar tech

[@ErikAnderssen]

Just so i get this straight, if i want to go from standard tuning to a DGCFAD tuning, i will need to adjust the springs in the back every time? Because now when i tuned the guitar down just before i found this video my floyd rose went low and then got to the same normal position when i tuned it back to standard tuning. Im kinda new on the floyd rose. I have 3 springs in now but i have room for 2 more if thats the isssue so i dont have to screw every time i wanna change tuning?

[@ManBunMetalHead]

If you want the bridge level, then yes, you'd need to adjust it if you changed tuning at all. That's the unfortunate part with floating trems. Taking out a spring could help, but it's unlikely it'd be perfect. Not to mention having less springs will change the way your trem reacts. Something you might want to consider is some sort of trem locking device. One that either locks the trem in place or prevents it from going low. The second option would prevent you from pulling up on the trem bar, but you'd still be able to do dive bombs.

[@ManBunMetalHead]

I'm not exactly sure what you're describing. When screwing into wood they don't get cross threaded like screwing into metal since the screw basically cuts the threads into the wood. It's possible the predrilled hole was not deep enough for the screw. If you bought it at a store, wouldn't hurt to take it back and have them take a look at it.

[@prism223]

Can you explain the rationale for blocking the bridge with the battery? I've adjusted a Floyd rose to go lower and higher and in each case I just loosened the strings, adjusted the spring tension, and retuned.

[@ManBunMetalHead]

I typically do it so the strings don't fight with the springs when I'm first winding the tuners up.

[@roberteltze4850]

Without a block you are trying to balance the tension of seven things all at once, six strings and the strings. Tuning one string changes tension on the spring which changes tension on the other strings. It's a difficult balancing act. Blocking the bridge takes the springs out of the equation. You can tune all the strings without then effecting each other. Once you have them all tuned you have the correct tension on six of the items so you can remove the block and just have one tension left, the springs.

Thanks for the vid. It's not really as intimidating as I always thought

Hey man, my action is sitting a bit high after my first string change on an Ibanez RG350DX. My mate has said NOT to ever touch these two screws at the bridge but you are saying to do it. I am very confused!!!

I have a peavey nitro with a floyd rose and its difficult to tune (broke my high e string)
