double locking trems
Q: Hi,
recently i bought a new guitar with a low profile Floyd rose tremolo. I’m into metal and use whammy bar very much but the guitar tends to go out of tune after a little use.
so is there any solution to this problem that doesn’t involve changing the trem????
A: That is a good question. In general, every Floyd I’ve personally owned has been pretty rock solid. I would try maybe a slightly thicker gauge of strings. Also, break in your new strings a bit with your bar before you start playing on them. Strings that are brand new or too old tend to go out of tune easier. You might want to look at how your bridge is set too. Make sure it is level and there isn’t too much string or spring tension.
