@@Charles-pm4so thank you, I’m glad you liked it.

@@Exsteeler yep, I have the Washburn instructions and I’m aware of all the adjustments. It doesn’t appear to do much but to be fair this guitar is waiting for me to get around to it and really dig in to the guts of it.

@ hmm 🤔 that’s very strange. I own 4 of them and I can adjust the each bar where there’s no tension at all or it can be adjusted super stiff where you can only dive the bar. Maybe yours is broken in some way.

@@petkopeet the best way to deal with your truss rod if it’s stiff is to take the nut all the way off (if you can, more on that in a bit) and put some Vaseline or beeswax on the threads and the bearing surface to make it move as easy as possible. Slightly over tighten it without string tension then tune it up. Relax the truss rod nut until it is the desired amount of relief (or straight as an arrow) and then bump the truss rod nut righty tighty so it won’t continue to loosen up. If you have a double action truss rod you can’t take the nut off because it’s welded to the rod. Other than Vaseline or beeswax the same principle applies. For more watch this.

@@spiccolirocks3580 yep, that’s correct.

@REXYLAB I love the Floyd! Waaaeew! That's a divebomb! 💣💥🤯👍🏻

@@matiasmartinez3498 I bought a reproduction of the preamp and reverse engineered it from my model 6.

@@iwilrage what exactly does that mean? The original Floyd Rose came out in the 70s and was nothing like the Floyd Rose we all know today.

@@braianskate sadly I do not but before you replace your pots try cleaning them with some Deoxit D5. Almost every time there is a problem with your pots they are dirty and just need to be cleaned.

@@sarcasmintended5550 they have bearings, no knife edge to wear out.

@@briandietrich1373 in the beginning I was not a fan, but I am now! With locking tuners this is a great bridge.

@@REXYLAB Amen!

@@bobc.5698 you can make them straight instead of angled. That will reduce tension but probably not enough. The white FU springs are heavy, drop it to black (regular) or even yellow (light) and it should fix the problem. If your bridge is decked (dive only) you can unscrew the claw until the bridge comes off the body for reference and then tighten it back until it starts to touch. I personally find noiseless springs make more noise than the regular ones so I have been just replacing all my “upgraded” noiseless springs with the original ones. I typically use 9s on my floating Floyd Rose bridges and 2 regular springs and it works great so don’t be afraid to experiment until you find the combination that works best for you. If you need any assistance reply to this comment and I’ll be happy to help.

@REXYLAB thanks. I just ordered some fender springs to try on it. I hope they're light. They were like 5 for $10.

@@connorhart7597 you got that right!

@REXYLAB handheld also tends to be sketchier than a router table, feel like that's worth mentioning for less experienced people, but projects like this are borderline impossible with a table router. Paying a luthier 300$ is gonna be a lot cheaper than a doctor trying to piece a few fingers back together lmao

@@garrettfrank3327 that is incorrect. You must match the neck angle or your action will be too high.

@@REXYLAB It changes the break angle and string height a little bit. That's why saddles are adjustable. I've been setting up guitars for years and have never seen someone shim a neck to push a bridge from decked to floating. You shim a neck if the pocket angle is out of spec and you dont have enough saddle height travel to set the action to a desired height.

@@garrettfrank3327 show me your video on how to do this job and I’ll watch it. However, I still maintain my position that you are leaving out a big step.

@@snapintoaslimjimohyeah you poor, poor internet troll. Who hurt you?

@@daveylee4677 I have one. Here’s the link. 1985 Washburn G-10V🎸 ruclips.net/video/YyVVItafBgo/видео.html

@@DuffTV we can agree to disagree. I think the tone of the Kubicki is possibly the best bass tone ever. But what a boring world it would be if everything was based around what one person liked. I have P basses too and I love them as well. Just different tools in the tool chest.

@@__kvik that is possibly the best way I have heard this quandary addressed.

@@kistophe proof that nobody will ever be satisfied by any pickup test, ever.

@@denverrandy7143 I miss them too! I swear I am going to do them again as soon as I have everything at Kahler up and running. Gary Kahler and I do a weekly podcast every Saturday at 10 pst. I encourage everyone to watch that. Whether you like Kahler or not it’s real fun. I have to say too that I really do like the cam bridge even though I am a fulcrum guy. But the Kahler steeler professional is easily my favorite bridge, 2nd place is the gotoh 1996T, 3rd Ibanez edge, 4th Floyd Rose. We have been developing something that should be out very soon that I think everyone will love and that took a lot of time. Plus the Glenn Tipton Parkinson’s Foundation auction guitar and Glenn Fricker coming out was a lot to do. In less than 2 weeks we have the first Las Vegas guitar trade show and then I should have time to work on Rexylab stuff (but first I’m taking a couple days off, I’ve been 27/7 pretty much all year). The good news is I have video capability in the recording studio now so demos will start happening soon! And I thought I was busy as a full time commercial deep sea diver in the Gulf of Mexico.

@@BigSunn0 I would never gig this kit.

@@willrichtor the new steeler professional is easily my favorite bridge.

@@rikardocarvalho if you are experiencing it being so stiff that you can’t move it then it’s set up wrong. Also, why would you remove a string… did you mean spring? The reason it’s so stiff is because Fender wanted it that way. This bridge was designed for Fender and they wanted it more stable than a Floyd Rose. Because of that the spacing of the studs is the same as a Floyd Rose but they are a bit further back than a Floyd Rose and almost all of the various licensed double locking bridges. Were you to try a killer that uses the same slot system they behave more like a traditional double locking fulcrum because of the stud placement. In conclusion the Spyder will always be stiff because it was designed to be stiff, because it was for designed Fender and they wanted it that way. If yours truly “won’t move” it is setup wrong.

@@REXYLAB Hi. Thanks for your fast answer. Yes I meant spring and not string. It moves but its to hard. Knife edges are completely wasted but I assume that has nothing to do with that stiffness. These 4 springs (I guess they are original) are extremely strong. Even with only 2 its too stiff and the bridge gets lifted.. even with back screws tightened to the end touching the wood.

@@dekion261 these electronics will totally change but I’m not installing a kill switch.

@REXYLAB don't see why not throw everything and the kitchen sink in.

@@dekion261 I have something I’m going to do instead of a kill switch.

@@rogeradams7286 I don’t understand people who bitch about the electronics in this guitar, they’re awesome.

@@qasperr994 what’s wrong with the inlays? How do they affect the guitar’s performance in any way at all?

@REXYLAB I've just never been a fan of inlays in general on any guitar.

@@RickMcCargar no, that would not get the plate off the body.

@@REXYLAB I've done it.

@@emilerpel8342 yeah, that’s a JT6. If you replace yours with a lockmiester or similar make sure you change the posts. The biggest mistake most people make is leaving the original posts in and putting a different bridge on. The angles are different on all of them and they need the matching posts to perform correctly at best and not damage the knife edges at worst.

@@REXYLAB Yes I have a Lackmeister 6 in mind to replace the JT6, but I must ask what are the posts? I'm from Germany I don't know the word in a guitarish context sorry😂

@@JohnLloydDavis yeah, I totally love their stuff but also Iron Maiden, Slayer, Celtic Frost, etc. but also Jaco, Chick Corea, John Coltrane, and all that.
