Members Branden Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hey everyone. So Im looking at getting a custom Strat done by Warmoth. I am looking to have the neck set up with a straight 16" radius and a 1 11/16 (43mm) string spacing at the nut. Now Warmoth only offers the Schaller Floyd Rose with a 12" radius. I am having a hard time finding a Schaller with a 16" radius to match the neck. Anyone know where to find one? Also. Where is a good place to find very thin pieces of metal? Something I could cut to the size of the individual saddles to place under them and use for shims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members axegrinder Posted January 29, 2013 Members Share Posted January 29, 2013 I wasn't aware that Floyds came with different radii, but the Schaller unit sold at StewMac is spec'd as a 14" radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DarthElvis Posted January 29, 2013 Members Share Posted January 29, 2013 Yeah, you will need shims. Get yourself a set of metal feeler guages from an auto-parts store (should be about $7.00) and hack 'em up. Works great. More than enough to radius a floyd. They also work great for setting up your action (mind you don't hack up the size you need to set up your guitar). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
