Trems: Recessed vs Standard

Then it has something to do with that saddle . Or the little steel block that presses the string inside the saddle might be cracked If you have a OFR.

I understand what you're saying, I'm just a little confused what it has to do with the topic of discussion or my earlier comments(?). I dunno.

Sorry ... carry on.

My point was that the guitar in question here doesn't have a "flush" mounted Floyd. That's all.

I've broken a couple of b strings in a year, are you tightening the floyd bridge string clamps too much, that will sometimes weaken the strings at that point, I used to break my high E all the time, I was tightening the string bridge clamps too much???

That's exactly what happened to me recently. I discovered I tightened my clamp too tight. The minute I would loosen that clamp to re-adjust my tuning....SNAP! goes the high E. I stopped tightening that clamp too tight and the breakeage stopped.......Live and Learn!!!!!!

Definately! Only need to tighten then maybe a llil more.
