Ways around it. it's technique as Kage said. Luckily overnight I learned the technique to bend notes and keep the open strings flat pitched.Tonight I am going to master the technique of a floyd not going out of tune when a string breaks. After watching the protector last night I now know that physics and gravity have no power over technique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thefyn Posted September 18, 2006 Members Share Posted September 18, 2006 Originally posted by STEEL KAGE Well lets see, would you agree that my first statement about hundreds, if not thousands of Floyd users not having the problem? Of course you do, you cant deny it. If thats the case, then whats left? you got it , technique!!! Cmon dude, stop wasting my time and come back when you have something.... About half a dozen people agreed that floyds do have note stability issues in certain situations.

Of course a Floating bridge is going to have stability issues, its up to you to make it work( or not) either way, its still about technique!!!

Members rhino bucket Posted September 18, 2006 Members Share Posted September 18, 2006 if i'm not carefull i'll flatten my palm mutes with a Floyd, but do way better with bends. getting to were the locking nuts bother me more than not being able to be ham fisted on the bridge. i wear my guitars fairly low and my fingers go over the nut when fretting on the first fret on the 5th and 6th strings. as yes i'm fully aware of how {censored}ty my playing is:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thefyn Posted September 18, 2006 Members Share Posted September 18, 2006 The ironic thing is that Floyds are easier to chug on, because they are so flush with the strings. Often if I mess up takes too often while recording, I can pick up my Tokai with a floyd and breeze through it. They also play a LOT faster. Good for the speed stuff.

Members 17 Tubes Posted September 18, 2006 Members Share Posted September 18, 2006 Originally posted by satannica It just sounds to me like your floyd is set up a smidge too weak.Come to amp fest. I'll bring a floyd guitar that's great for rhythm and lead and you'll see what I mean.I just laid an albums worth of rhythm tracks on my mate's ESP. It has a floyd superbly set up (by me) *smug mode on* and I didn't experience any problems whatsoever.I just wish I still had my DK-2. That was a diamond axe. I hadn't tuned it in months and it was still perfect pitch!When your palm muting, its all good to pick that bit harder, but from how you describe, the only way I can reproduce it is if I really dig the plectrum under the string, but I never do that anyways.J. +10000 If you got that bitch set up right (for the guitar and your playing)....then it's good fro everything. I have honestlyhad NO problems whatsoever with the Floyds I have had. But I'm digging my Wilkinson trem very much these days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
