Members gardo Posted August 26, 2015 Members Share Posted August 26, 2015 I bought a set of flatwounds for my semi-hollow but I can't put them on because the old strings still sound good and intonate right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeepEnd Posted August 27, 2015 Members Share Posted August 27, 2015 I actually wish I could be more like that. I change strings sometimes when the "old" set is still perfectly good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AJ6stringsting Posted August 27, 2015 Members Share Posted August 27, 2015 One of the many great things about a Floyd Rose tremolo system, is that you can put the ball ends on the tuning keys, put lots of string on the tuning posts and when the string breaks, you can unlock the nut, unwind the extra string on the post and pull it down to clamp down on the bridge.
