Once I got an EverTune-equipped guitar, I found it difficult to go back to my others.
nice vid man! evertune is really one of the coolest innovations I've seen in guitar world in a long time
Agreed!
Love the Evertune bridges. We were recording out in Los Angeles in 2013 and someone handed me a guitar with one in the studio. I was blown away as I have always been a floyd player and never even heard of this great technology. I have wanted one ever since then.
Looks easy to setup and they take a beating for sure. Hopefully someday I will have one of my own. Thanks for another great educational, informational and entertaining video for all us guitar lovers! Cheers !!!
Right on Harry! I hope you get one for yourself sometime soon! And thanks for tuning in man!🎸
That's a beautiful guitar. I love that gloss black finish and the round top.
Thanks. I get my evertune soon and I can't wait.
DR tight fits are a perfect choice for drop tuned guitars. They are unique and inexpensive.
Thanks for the video brother!
My pleasure!🎸
I have two evertune loaded guitars. the first is an ec1000et. I had it in drop B with 13-62 gauge strings. I dreaded changing strings and setting it up. It took forever to set up. The second guitar is the brown burst mh1000et, which I bought because your review. It was the easiest guitar it set up and restring. I think it took like 15 min tops for drop c with 10-52 gauge strings. I also installed the 24v mod into the mh1000et. I suggest every one at least try that mod. Great content bud.
Awesome to hear Andrew!
Really cool. I’m saving up for that MH 1000. 👍
@@megatodd707 Nice! You'll love it bro!
Hey Rob! Thanks to this video I went and got a Viper 1000et. And I freaking love it. After playing it, I can never care for another guitar that doesn’t have an evertune bridge haha. So now I’m getting rid of my 7string because I bought that same guitar from this video😂. I hope ESP sends you free guitars and commission checks! Interesting thing to test, I was feeling creative and dropped in a rather large string on the bass side of my non-baritone Viper. got it to tune to an octave below D. And it has better tuning stability than my fanned fret 8 string. You should do a video testing something insane like that. 😂. Anyway, thanks for all you do and you’ve been doing. 2004 Chimaira teenage fanboy here.
Cheers dude!👊
Awesome vid Rob! I have been looking forward to thee evertune vids. If you were to adjust the action would you personally do that first before tuning and intonating?? Keep the vids coming bro! Easily the best teacher on all things guitar related on TH-cam! 😊🤘
Thank you my friend!🙏 Truss rod, string change/tuning, then intonation is always last.
But I will say that many guys think that truss rod and action are common in terms of adjustment.
In reality they RARELY ever need adjustment. Once a guitar is set up properly, either from the factory or by a pro, action almost never needs adjustment, and truss rod needs adjusting maybe once every few years. I'll make a video explaining this in greater detail!
@@RobArnoldWorld perfect. Look forward to that one too bro. Enjoy the rest of the weekend! 🤘
I own this Guitar too but in Snow white with the fishmans. This Guitar is really Awesome. After i ve checked some Videos about the evertune i didnt had some Problems With it. Its really easy and stays Awesome in Tune 💪🏿
Nice!
The only string company that has separate packaging is ghs boomers,the rest do the few strings in one package,it is a pia thou lol!,that esp is gorgeous rob!
I’m pretty sure Ernie Ball does separate envelopes for each string.
@@ArticLight14 they might but don't use Ernie ball strings,I've always been a diehard ghs fan but lately got dunlops off amazon,I use mxr patch cables and the super bad ass distortion pedal,going to switch to dunlop strings
@@gearhead2017 yeah I’ve used about every string. They are all descent. Ernie Ball classics on a strat……heaven.
Thank you Rob for the perfect explanation🙏🏻 you are a perfect teacher too ! 😊
I appreciate that bro!
Great video and awesome guitar, thank you Rob! Cheers!🤘🤘🤘
Thanks and cheers Tony!🤘
I know what you mean about that cause I use the dr pure blues with my six strings and I use the dr DDT drop down tuning for my seven strings. Really love them so with how they package them I can live with that. I love how they feel sound and last alot longer then other strings I used play and never had a problem with corrosion but have had that happen on other strings.
Can't thank you enough for this! Thought I was going crazy! I was treating the tuners at the bridge as fine tuners on a floyd and it's a different beast but holy crap is the Evertune pure wizardry! Once you have it figured out I don't ever want any other bridge that isn't a trem system.
Right on! Happy to have helped you wrap your head around it!
Thank you . And thank you !
My pleasure! Thanks for tuning in!🎸
Search the net, figure it out, take your time. Finally in tune. And NO bar. My Floyd has a bar and stays in tune. My tunomatic has noooo tuning problems, and NO having to search the net. The Evertune is the dumbest most expensive waste of time and money I have ever seen on a guitar. And I have seen plenty.
Appreciate the vid Rob. I try to explain this stuff to people who never heard or messed with an Evertune and it's like I'm explaining Calculus lol
Ha!🧮
I am a ESP guitars fan, have been since 2000 sawing you with chimera in the down again video. I'm also a member at the ESP website and I just recently bought a 7 string version of the M-1000 deluxe that came out in 2020 and its amazing. Because of you rob I became a fan of ESP guitars and for that I thank you.
Happy to hear that bro! I play them because of Metallica! I feel honored to have inspired you!🤘
Great video as always. This is my two cents. I never tried the evertune bridge, but I can say as a bedroom guitarist, that maybe isn't worth the time, BUT if you go on tour this is perfect. Every night sbam, you plug in and you're in tune. What else?
I can't argue with that!
Damn, it looks like witchcraft! Some people have already been burned alive for less than that, you can be sure! 🤣🤣🤣
If i'm not mistaken, this is the first HQ in depth video about the evertune set up. But there are some point to be made now that this video is out. Over the years many people bitched and found all the reasons to not have this on their guitars... And its partially the fault of the big evertune users for making everything clear as daylight about both the process AND the result of the set up. I think that some players mentioned that there is a bit of a learning curve to it. But now that I'm seeing the process and understanding what people are bitching about... Dude... I think that the 3+ moths of staying in tune factor is worth the 30-60 min of set up (considering you have changed the string brand and gauges). Obviously i have never tried it, but always loved this guitar invention. If i recommended it before, now i will definitely be an advocate for it.
Yeah dude! And the setup is fun anyway... is 30-60 minutes for a one time setup that terrible? It's time well spent if you ask me!🎸
I remember first seeing them around 2010 in my local guitar shop in Germany when they had to come stock in their own ESP knockoff guitar brand to market this new piece of gear to the people.
Wow! Had no idea they were around back then!
@@RobArnoldWorld Yea, 2010 or 2011. I believe at first they were only available as the replacement variant for regular tune-o-matic bridges. Since it's a German brand we got to see this stuff first. We weren't sure what to think of it at first because it was very new and complex and seemed like magic. But within like 2-3 years the word really spread and became a widely popular piece of gear.
@@RobArnoldWorld in 2010 they came to the market on VGS guitars. Very nice guitars. After that they spread like crazy.
Nice video man. I got my eyes on a ESP LTD Viper 1000 EverTune (See Thru Black Cherry Satin). Beautiful guitar. That price tag though. 😬
Ahh yes that one is sweet! Hopefully you win it though!
@@RobArnoldWorld I hope so too man! Gonna start saving up.
I'm really surprised at how easy Evertune is to set up and intonate. Thanks for the vid showing this 👍. Plus gauge 11s in standard tuning is hardcore, hurts my fingers thinking about it.
I feel ya!
Hey Rob! Awesome video, bro. I’ve really been looking forward to this one. You answered ALL my questions. I couldn’t figure out how one would use vibrato/ bend strings if it always stayed in tune. You answered that!
😍👍👊 awesome.
BTW. I received your ‘metal over everything’ mug. It’s awesome. Makes my coffee even heavier! 😃
Take care.
Nice! Glad to hear it Todd! And thanks for your order man! Cheers!☕️
the strings are still vvibrating againsitthe frets.
I've been a floyd rose guy forever, been thinking about trying Evertune Bridges, some students of mine say they are awesome!
They're worth a try! Depending on what you're playing, the Evertune is right up there with sliced bread!
@@RobArnoldWorld If it's good for R.A, it's good enough for me!
When you hit the lower strings hard while playing e.g. fast power chords in succession, would they go sharp as they normally
do when using the traditional bridge? I.e. does Evertune remedy the sharp intonation resulting from sideways movement of the string ? Also, how does it affect the sound ?
No, I would say that no matter how hard or soft you hit the strings, it's perfect tuning every time. (as long as your Evertune is set up properly).
In my experience, the sound is not affected in any way. (I'm no Evertune salesman or anything btw... I just think it's a really great invention.) The only negative I've personally found, is that the vibrato isn't quite as true as it is with any standard bridge. That's not a deal breaker for me though.
Can we tune our guitar while every tuning string gauge tension gauge calculator not reccomment with my string gauges if we don’t care tuning stability for few songs? Or evertune bridge not allowing us to tune if calculator not recomment? If we can will cause any damage or problems?
Yes, you can tune your strings to whatever you'd like to. The bridge will have to be adjusted though, with any changes you make.
Great video rob as you always do. But man that 7 string gets more beautiful. then you plug the guitar in and now its a beast.
😎🎸
Man it’s such a cool bridge,I’m amazed how it stays in tune no matter what! But seems like a lot of work to get it into tune to begin with. Great video.
Na you've just gotta set it and forget it! No big deal
What do you do if you've moved the saddle all the way back but the intonation is still off?
There's something not liking something somewhere. Perhaps the combination of your string gauge and your desired tuning. Also, I know it seems like a dumb thing to say, but make sure you're 100% certain that you are in fact moving the saddle in the direction it needs to go.
@@RobArnoldWorld Yeah I'm sure I'm moving it the right way. Perhaps I'll try a larger string gauge. Thanks for the reply! Love Chimera and stoked you started a TH-cam channel!
@@taylorlambert5752 In my personal experience, it sounds like the nut is cut improperly. Would the string that you can't intonate happen to be the low E?
@@nckhed I have it tuned to C, but yes it is the lowest string that has the issue.
@@taylorlambert5752 Ok, it could very well be that the nut is not properly cut. I recently had that issue on a B-stock Eclipse and I swapped the cheap plastic nut out for a GraphTech nut and what a difference. Not only was the intonation issue fixed, the guitar stays in better tune and sounds better overall.
What about neck adjustment? How does it work with this bridge ? Does fhe bridge always keep the same tension on the neck ? Thanks man
I would say its the same as with any bridge, when making truss rod adjustments on an Everyone equipped guitar... except for the added advantage that you don't even need to retune after a neck adjustment, because the Everyone will simply compensate for any differences made!🎸
@@RobArnoldWorld seems very handy . Thanks mate
Seems like a cool idea, but honestly, rather involved to set up. Also, I'm not a fan of needing a special tool to tune. God forbid you need to make an adjust mid-gig, I could imagine that being stressful. Maybe I'm wrong. Does it impact the feel as a player that does a lot of bending and vibrato?
Personally I believe the bends and vibrato aren't quite as true as they'd be on a traditional bridge. But I still back it for certain scenarios, and consider it an awesome tool to have in the tool box.
@RobArnoldWorld I can see it being very useful to mitigate the low strings from going sharp if you play too hard with lighter gauge strings. I would probably set my G B & E strings so the bends would feel as natural as possible. I expect that the difference in feel bending would be similar to going from a fixed bridge to a floating tremolo.
ty for this video so much better then the others i've seen. love how you explain things !
🤘😁🙏
I just bought that same guitar two weeks ago! Love every part of it! My first evertune guitar, thank you for this tutorial!
Nice!🤘
Awesome video could you possibly do a video for drop C tuning for noobs?
Like in what way?
@@RobArnoldWorld I guess the setup string gauge I’m learning but videos on you are not very detailed!
CGCFAD Low to High.
I have a 6 string Evertune video coming where I drop it from E to drop C, restring, intonate, all that jazz! Stay tuned!
Awesome
Hey, Rob. Possible question for a future EYL video. Do you ever get copyright strikes for featuring Chimaira songs in your videos? I saw Robb Flynn of Machine Head recently had one of his livestreams taken down due to a copyright claim which was strange since he was playing songs that his band wrote.
So I understand, after the string change and it's all out the way to tell if its in zone 2 before tuning up is checking the the note wont bend?
I'm still confused on how to use evertune...
Maybe try giving this one a watch for even more information! 👉 th-cam.com/video/oafD5LDOWg4/w-d-xo.html
After going up in gauge did you have to adjust the trus rod? Usually after going thicker with the gauge, I have to adjust the trus a bit. So I wonder after doing that if you had to, did you need to adjust the intonation like a regular guitar, or does the evertune just keep u locked in? I’m assuming it’s like a normal guitar, but I figured I’d ask ya.
I did not make any truss adjustments, and I did make intonation adjustments which I went over in detail during the video!
This guy's opening statement tone is every 3am infomercial ever.
Great video. If this was covered, I forgot and apologize but:
The pitch of my strings do slightly change while turning tuner heads when I’m in zone 2. Could this possibly be the result of strings needing to stretch more?
Thanks dude! There's debate about whether or not strings need to be stretched with the Evertune, because in theory, the Evertune should compensate for any stretching that naturally occurs. But I say, better safe than sorry! I always stretch just like I would with any other bridge, because I'd rather that not even be a factor when it comes to getting a great setup.
The other thing is, if you're noticing slight pitch changes while turning the tuning knobs, it could mean that you're super close to either zone 01 or 03. So keep that in mind as well. Good luck!🎸
@@RobArnoldWorld I’m definitely in zone 2. After watching your video again, I noticed it occurs on yours as well. As you demonstrated being within zone 2 and quickly turned the tuner heads up and down you can see the pitch does slightly change. I’m talking a very slight change. It’s audible to me. I guess all it really comes down to is an additional balancing act when tuning…if it does indeed hold a stable tune I’m willing to put up with it haha! Got to wait on cleaning kit for guitar to come in then I’ll change to my default string gauges and look into it further
Ahh I hear ya man. I think I probably just go with the happy medium. I'm not an Evertune spokesman or ambassador or anything, but I'd say that no matter what, even with that slight discrepancy during the setup, the tuning still holds true under every circumstance, in a way that's unimaginable with any other type of bridge. Once it's set up the way you want it to be, it stays like that in a way you can count on. 👌@@P.B.R._S._n_C.
@@RobArnoldWorld oh I’m sold on Evertune no doubt! Just had to get the hang of it, you know? You made it look so damn easy in this vid and that speaks to your experience with the system. Had to work out the little learning kinks my own way, but without a doubt your video is the best Evertune tutorial I’ve watched.
Also wanted to say, love your work with Chimaira. 🤘😤
I appreciate that dude! Happy to help and thanks for tuning in!🎸@@P.B.R._S._n_C.
Thanks for the video, because of you I bought the Esp Ltd 1000-MH and right now it’s my favorite guitar.
I want to ask, what do you think about the DR Tite-fit for drop D, I wonder if the 50 will be too loose on a 25.5” scale length? I’m talking about the 6 string pack not the 7.
Awesome man! That's great to hear! 🎸
I think the DR's you mentioned would be just fine. They would not be too loose!
Hi Rob.. thanks for the extremely informative video..i have changed to a higher gauge. All strings seem to reach zone 2 perfectly except the A string.. i am having a problem getting the A string in tune. I ran out of tuning range from the saddle ( to sharpen the note) what's the solution?
Without seeing it myself I'm not exaaaaactly sure, but maybe start by tightening the A string from the tuning knob on the headstock. Give it a few full turns there and then start again at the saddle to fine tune. Good luck!
Your videos are great Rob! EVERY guitar player should watch! Love Chimaera and Undead is one of the best Six Feet Under albums! Also I hate when they combine the strings in the packs…. Keep up the awesome work bro! Look forward to all your new videos 🙌🏻
I appreciate all of that big time, brother!👊
hi , how can I fix low e buzzing saddle ?
I'd need more information!
@@RobArnoldWorld it comes from the saddle , can I file it ?
@@gaetanmottin1703 In my opinion, and this is without seeing or hearing or playing your guitar myself, I'd say filing is a bad idea. I'll bet the problem lies within somewhere else. Are you sure the buzz is coming from a saddle, and not somewhere over the fretboard?
@@RobArnoldWorld it is not abuzz in fact , it comes from the saddle , my fretboard is ok , it produces. sound inaudible , cracking your ear , my evrtune is set perfectly but there is a big problem in my first string , the tiny one
@@RobArnoldWorld I think it is a spring resonance because I have nothing on the springs ! I saw that ervertune put putty in it
You rule Rob! I just acquired an Evertune, and I knew right away... "Hey Rob Arnold" will know! 🙏
👊😎
This looks awesome, great tutorial!
so you can change the string tension, but everything still stay in tune,if can do that, thats interesting and very very useful .
Yes sir!
Kool I have wondered about this… still haven’t got to try the evertune
It's definitely worth checking out!
It looks preety simple
best video explaining. thanks so much.
Happy to hear that man!
I'll stay with my stop bar tailpeice because I'm a stickler about fine tuning my guitar with my Snark tuner because I also use to make sure I have the right note on my fretboard. It's not even a 6 second adjustment.
I love you man, but in my country Ukraine is a war ... say something about it !!! tnx and peace for all !!!
❤️❤️❤️
Not to sound rude, but I think just about anyone who does not live under a rock knows about Ukraine's situation.
Even though my name is no success, I hope your Chanel gets better.
if your changing tunings often whats a good option?
Regarding?
