Re: Calling all Jackson Charvel forum members.

I'm currently inventing a small lock that connects driectly to the body of the guitar. It locks the floyd, so you can basicly "block" it without adding a chunck of material to the cavity in the back compartment. You can unlock it too, so that way you can tune your guitar, and keep it level, and still make weird sounds. Then whenever you wana, just flip a thing, and it'll lock the trem in place, so you can do bends without flattening the other strings.

*thinks* I still can't think of how i'm going to do that though lol.

Re: Calling all Jackson Charvel forum members.

Wow! That would be a useful improvement to the contraption!

I like the functionality of the OFR. However on some body shapes like the Roswell Rhoads, I am inclined to think that the "busy mechanics" of the design tends to detract from the streamlined look of the overall shape and design.

not sure what he (750) means by wuss tho as it doesn't require muscle, just ear and touch. The note is still slightly flat even when you're in unison unless the tension is high.

Re: Calling all Jackson Charvel forum members.

If I had my way, I would put a Floyd On every guitar. I don`t feel comfortable with anything else.

I hear you.

Re: Calling all Jackson Charvel forum members.

Charvel guy. i think he means to put the bent string slightly out (i suppose flat) to make both of them pretty much in tune. I usually do the unison bend although the top string is flat, but if it is a main thing i bend the top string slightly, not hard. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
