It takes more time than with a simple hardtail guitar with locking tuners, but it doesnt take THAT much longer when you get used to it.

Nah. It's fine. If that's what you want, don't let changing strings stop you from getting a guitar with one. It's really not that big a deal.

Nope. Just block the back and change one string at a time. I recommend putting the "ball" end through the tuning pegs and clipping the sharp end and sticking those in the saddles. It looks cool and will keep you from poking the ends of your fingers.

Re: for floyd lovers
Yeah, changing strings on a Floyd is a breeze once you get used to them. It may take a few sets of strings to get the hang of it. Whatever you do, do not buy a guitar with a crappy cheap Floyd. :firing: I made the mistake of buying an Ibanez RG with a Lo-trans II. One of my worst mistakes while buying guitars. Once you begin using a Floyd Rose , though, you may never go back to using any other trems again. They're addicting and quite fun.

No problem here so far. I took the FR out of my Ibanez, cleaned all the stuff and sticked it back and it´s still working. Changing strings is possible
I was afraid too because many people said "Uh..you have to look out..don´t do this and that"..but it´s not bad.

These guys are right on. I was a little intimidated the first time I changed the strings on mine, but when I got done I was really surprised. I had no trouble at all. It may take a minute or two longer, but it's not that bad. Floyd Rose has some pretty detailed instructions on their site, too.
