  • Floyd Springs Question

    I notice in picitures of trem cavities, a lot of people using 3 springs have the two outer springs hooked in at a diagonal/inward angle. When I switched from 4 to 3 springs on my pc1, I just hooked the outer springs on parallel to the middle spring on the outer edges. Is there any reason for me to be doing it differently? Is the diagonal setup just to increase tension to avoid having to screw in thingies more?

    It looks cooler if you angle the outer springs

      It looks cool and it protects your thingies. Honestly, I haven't noticed a differnce either way. I only use two springs in my Floyd anyway. I don't like to screw with my thingies.

        in order ofincreasing tension:

        3 springs, all parallel ---> 3 springs, outer ones angled ---> 4 springs, all parallel

            Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong.

                I meant spring claw. Thanks for the info, I'll just leave it as is.

                  Yeah, with the advice you're getting around here I'd just leave it alone and call it good
