No announcement yet.
How long does it take you to tune a Floyd Rose or floating tremolo?

Thanks. I'll check that out.
BTW, StewMac has them but they charge $10 for shipping. These could be dropped in a bubble envelope for a couple bucks. I wonder if they know how much business they lose because of their shipping policy?
Sweet. Just got 'em on Amazon for $4.19. Apparently I had a credit that I didn't even know about.Last edited by ArtieToo; 08-25-2020, 05:39 PM.

Well, the "red" noiseless springs are better. Three of them do what four regulars couldn't. And, with the trem claw not screwed in so far. (I also snagged the brass claw.) But there are still issues. The trem sits nice and flat with a real stable tune. But the trem arm is up in the air. If I palm the arm, I can barely touch the strings. This can't be right. I wonder if an Ibby Edge is supposed to be flat like an FR, or maybe have it's ass up in the air? Can anyone post a pic of a properly set up Ibanez Edge trem? This is a late 80's MIJ.

Personally, I like using all five.

Keep in mind that the edge trem in the vid is not the same model as yours.
Youre is an original edge the vid isnt.
But, your trem angle looks good. Use that little notch to get it straight to the body.
As far as the bar angle, you can physically bend the bar to where you like it if you want but its angle is what it is. I have an edge and I feel like the bar is too close to the body. It hits the volume knob when I depress it.

This is interesting that you all are talking about actually bending the bar. I could do that, but it still makes me wonder how this thing came from the factory. If I was going to keep this for myself, I'd wedge a Jenga block in there, and call it a day. But I want to sell this thing, and I want it to be correct as possible for a potential buyer.
And PFD . . . the more I screw in the claw, the higher the arm goes. The opposite of what I'm going for.

I miss the bar angle on the Floyd trademarked locking fender bridge I mentioned before. It was perfectly tight in the block, the angle kept it close to the body, spinning it around didn’t hit the body in the back, it was nice.
