    guitar strings dont stretch… only thing that would happen with the floyd is your string would slip out of the bridge and that would have happened already or your pulling on the trem springs and thats it. strings wont stretch

    I haven’t check all the comments, i might be repeating something here, but anyways..

    See, action setup affects intonation. If you intonate your guitar and THEN adjust the action, all your intonation adjustments change slightly, but they DO change. So the wiser way of setting the guitar up is to do all the adjustments first…truss rod, bridge angle, action at 12 fret, nut action at first fret…and leave intonation for the last step…

    Cheers

    @shanerussell86 …
    @shanerussell86 Where are you tuning from? The tension from tuning your strings shouldn’t be so much as to bend your bridge too much if it’s already in tune…

    I realise you posted this a week ago, did you find a fix?

    guys, losen the strings or drop the trem own when you adjust the action

    or your knife edges will get screwed over time

    and tbh you want to have your trem slightly angled upward or after you pull up the tunning will be slightly sharp ^^

    thats what ive found anywayy

    @Tanzhia
    Hey thank you for the tip but thats not my right problem, because my problem now is not chaning strings but when i tune my guitar down from E standard to Drop D the bridge is like going down not parallel and this guy are doing it so easy i just want to know is it really so easy? can i do something wrong that my guitar will go wrong?

  22. Tanzhia Says:

    Its never easy the …
    Its never easy the first time, just do what this guy say and if you do something wrong and you just can’t make it work you have to spend some money at the shop. And just a little tip, ask the repairfellow if he can show you what he is doing when fixing the gutiar. Thats how i learned how to change strings on my very first guitar ;)

  23. FroztKing Says:
