Floyd blocking question...

[Charlz]

First of all, yes I read Sully's blocking a floyd sticky thread, doesn't exactly answer this: can I block a floyd and make it basically a hard tail? No floating either direction...? (Sorry if this has been asked... or if it's a dumb question, flame away... [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img])

Re: Floyd blocking question...

Yeah, just block it on both sides. No problems.

Re: Floyd blocking question...

There's an easier way:

www.tremol-no.com

1. Purchase unit from AllParts and install it in the guitar (they'll start shipping in a few weeks).
2. Remove the thumbscrews that come with the unit; replace them with set screws (that also come with the unit).
3. Done.

[/ QUOTE ]Hey Kevan, thanks for sharing this info. I'm definitely gonna purchase it for my guitars. BTW, are you the same guy in the video with Rob Balducci?

Re: Floyd blocking question...

Yes, that's me. I'm the hack that sounds like a spoon clinking around inside and empty gas can.
Rob's the one with the sweet tone and more chops than Benihanna.

Re: Floyd blocking question...

Charlz- As the above post says, I'm not sure about listing prices here, so we'll wait for the word on that. Let's just say that it's cheaper than buying 3 different guitars with 3 different bridges.

Yes- wood blocks are indeed cheaper than a Tremol-No. They are, however, much harder to remove. Whether it's in the middle of a set, or when it comes time to sell. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
