...or anyone else who has some experience with this. I'll try to describe this the best I can, hopefully you'll know what I'm talking about. Is there any way to modify the cavity that a Floyd bridge sits in so that the action can be lowered? Ever since I got my Hamer, I've been playing my Wolfgang less and less. On my Hamer the action is low and comfortable, and I can fly on the neck. On my Wolfgang, I can't get the action low enough. Even with the Floyd adjusted as low as it can possibly go, the action is still much higher than on my Hamer with a tuneomatic bridge. When I adjust the Floyd's height screws to lower the trem, it will eventually start tilting forward...not because of the spring tension, but because the rear of the trem cavity sits higher than the front part. So the rear of the trem makes contact with the body, but the front slants downward if I tighten the screws too much. Even then, the action is too high. If I loosen the height screws until the trem sits parallel to the body like it's supposed to, the action is still way too high. Is there any way to modify the trem cavity so that the trem is a bit more recessed? I don't want to resort to shimming the neck. This is the only Floyd guitar I've tried, I don't know if other guitars have this problem or not, or if there's anything a good luthier can do to fix it. But I'm about ready to put it on Ebay, because this guitar is driving me crazy. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
