First time with a Floyd equipped guitar and I quite like it but I have a strange issue that could be normal. Probably doesn't matter but the guitar is a new Charvel San Dimas.
My issue is with tuning. I noticed that the guitar was swinging around in tune. In some trial and error I realized that it's generally when I change playing position. I may lean back in my chair and the guitar is more on it's back and it goes about a quarter step sharp. If I tilt the guitar in the other direction it goes about a quarter step flat but returning back to normal playing position it's back in tune. I'm guessing it's the weight of the floyd rose adding some tension (or not) based on playing position. Is there anyway to combat it? I'm planning to install one of those ESP Arming Adjusters to solve the bend issue and was thinking that with adding some more tension to the bridge it may help it not wobble around so much in tune when I move around.
