Who signed that guitar?

5:05 no problem with doing that under string tension? Is it a myth?

[@Norman-Bates]

Don't adjust a floating bridge under string tension. At the very least, press the whammy down to relieve some tension on the pivot studs before adjusting them.

@@Norman-Bates Totally agree, Adam from FU Tone said the same thing, ZERO pressure when adjusting the string height. I've seen what happens when it's done wrong, the knife edges get ruined in a hurry. These guys make great tools and videos but I wish they would correct this bit of info.

@@CJReaper666 I agree, Music Nomad have great advice and excellent products. Just that single bit of advice is their only bad point.

Explain. that's simply bs. mechanically it makes no sense. I don't think you have a good understanding of how the FR operates. kife edges aren't subject to change from a linear movement. its improperly set up fr that wear quickly, or cheap OFFbrand "floyd rose" style bridges. @@CJReaper666

The way it was done in the video is completely acceptable and will not damage kife edges of the bridge system.@@CJReaper666
