@@ManMark7 nothing a little petroleum jelly on the knife edges can't fix...trust me I have a cheap edge III GIO Ibanez that holds tune, I know what hell is haha XD
I was one of the first who took a chance and bought this guitar from this seller) It cost me $270 Then they were made of mahogany, and the color of the trim and pickup was not white, but yellowish-white.Otherwise, everything is the same.I didn't get the color at all, and giyara's body has a greenish tinge when the head is bright blue. The first thing to change on this guitar is the toplock.He's terrible.I delivered from gotoh.This Floydrouse is not so bad really. I bought a floydrouse separately with the guitar, also from gotoh, but my native floydrouse pleasantly surprised me! If you give the knives time to dock with the supports (this is usually seen when the paint is rubbed at the joints) and add a little more lubricant, then the floydrose holds the formation almost perfectly after deep dive bombs!I have already broken my native lever and installed another one)) Over time, the bolts from the adjustment of the censorship begin to rust.It's annoying, but if you etch them in acid and spray-paint them, then everything becomes perfect ;) I'm having trouble with saddles right now. And if I didn't have another floydrose, then I would advise either to buy exactly the same ones on Aliexpress for $ 6 and change them as consumables 1 time a year. Or buy 1 time stainless steel for $ 30 in the same place on aliexpress.But I plan to put gotoh))) ( if you want to put gotoh on too, then be ready to drill the guitar for the bushings .You need an 11.3 mm drill bit) for $ 270, this is a wonderful tool with great potential, despite the fact that it is rnplica and China! It sounds just amazing! Pickups are an analogue of GMS.Very powerful and readable! I will not change them, I like them very much! The frets are made perfectly! Very smooth! But! I don't like the fret material, it will last 2 years.I will change it) The fingerboard looks gorgeous, everything is well painted and varnished.The pegs perform their function, although there is already a backlash and a dead stroke , but I will change last of all, thanks to toplock .The microstructure on floydrose is working! The electronics are surprisingly well soldered and that's it for now
I actually am having a 04 Washburn 332 built with a brand new kahler and original l500xl bill Lawrence pickups put in it. With all the parts, guitar and labor its about 1900, honestly id recommend you guys to get this Chinese one for a great price, but at the same time i gotta get the original stuff.
Everybody is freaking out once thay knew if product is from China but look around you from plastics cups to bolts etc. and the company you've known your whole life and been trusting in your area is probably outsourcing from CN why? they simply change the game of productions in much cheaper cost. at the end of the day it's business.
I've been trying to find something similar dude, and the Chinese knock off's seem like my only option atm due to Dean and the Washburn's versions being so hard to find. Nice to see they are all one piece, and the neck isn't another piece of wood nailed/ glued on. After playing it for a few months would you recommend it? Obviously the components need to be replaced but neck/body wise?
@ManMark7 when you went to dive bomb half way in the vid you said that. I was saying that motto is my story of my life. Every God damn week . Something happens I got to fix .
According to my experience, the 3 main components to make it stay in tune are: 1. Locking nut 2. Knife edge 3. Pivot studs They need to be made from hardened metal, the problem of chinese knock offs are made by softer metal (zinc) witch is sucks@@samaguilar1128
95% of the time with tuning, the bridge isn't the issue, it's almost always the nut.
Man. This whole floyd system costs 20 bucks. that is the issue isn't it?

This guitar is very beautiful, the body is small compared to other washburns?? Or is it the same size?
The horns are little shorter. But Basicly it's same size.
did you stretch the strings before playing? you have a weird spring angle going on back there.
Yeah i've streached them. The spring thing is fixed. and guitar is upgraded

I would recommend. but not this one. It's shape is off and neck dives. But i hove ome with correct shape. Some day there will be a review on it too!
@@ManMark7 Sounds about right dude. The ALi express and other knock off sites replicas look pretty rough so i can see that happening. Cheers man!
Mine doesn't stay in tune even not using the tremolo or just bend a string... Now I have to start looking for a solution 😂
How come mate? I suggest you to switch the floyd or just block it.
@@ManMark7 I will study the measures tu put a floyd. Fixing a floating bridge on this guitar is a no go for me 🤘
If you don't stretch your strings before setting the Floyd up, it will go out of tune anyway.
@@roykropper2239 ofcourse they are stretched
wow…
omg it goes out of tuen on G xD

This is the first time I have this
to solve the problem with the g string is a the floyd issue?
Yeah, it's floyd issue. It costs 10 euro. Cheap garbage. I'll replace it
cool, thanks mate@@ManMark7
I'd just block the floyd rose tremolo off with a block. Lol
@@Matthew750-4 ordering a floyd rose guitar just to block it???? Just changed the floyd and everything is fine!
@@ManMark7 high end floyd roses no. Cheap floyd roses definitely. Usually block of the cheap ones till I get a better one. :D
or is it the same size as a Dean guitar?
Not quite the same. Soon I'll get a model that shoud be right size and will make a comparison video.

id reccomend to change that not staying in tune floyd to a schaller, its way better than this chineese copy

Conclusion: China Floyd could stay in tune - but does not

Buy locking tuners from the floyd rose website and it makes it stay in tune.
According to my experience, the 3 main components to make it stay in tune are:
1. Locking nut
2. Knife edge
3. Pivot studs
They need to be made from hardened metal, the problem of chinese knock offs are made by softer metal (zinc) witch is sucks@@samaguilar1128
