Hi. Good tips! Did you have to make any adjustments on the slots of the nut in order to find the right string hight? thank you.

I'm very interested in fitting a similar nut in my Charvel. What are your thoughts on it now that it's been a while since you've had it installed?

What’s the backing track’s name? It sounds solid

Great video! I'm considering the Graphtech no-nut. How has it held up? Ive had good luck with Graphtech in the past.

Get some hex keys with the handle on them. Easier to use

Don't get it, the entire idea of a Floyd is that it locks at the nut, and by that avoiding any friction behind the nut (not the same as at the tuners), and also the string is shorter when locked at the nut, so why have a Floyd at all?

Why the software app can't run on my computer? Make me crazy...

How do you handle the different sides of the guitar? Do you flip it over when the front and sides are done, or what?

Hi Dan just wondering, how do you go to landscape mode for the app? I’m running a 2024 iPad Pro … cheers!

Well done...you've given me some new ideas for my old koa Strat w/floyd bridge and locking nut. Been looking for a way or method to go back to a non-locking nut foe while now. Cheers on this!!

1:58 Thanks for the video. Its hard to find app info or how to connect with ios/ os. I’m guessing this is by wire? Btw, do have my own music corner in the house but i also have several other places where i pickup a guitar, like the dinner table or in front of the tv. And i’m always checking my surroundings so i wont hit something with the guitar. And seeing this vid i can see myself smashing the neck into the aquarium already 😳😅😶

I want to play your guitar ❤ I see there is an earvana nut there. Makes it sound extra in tune!

A wood router with 1” reamer could be useful .

Hey, have you finally got round to refinishing the bass? What colour did you choose? I also own an RB820SS and I'm considering giving it a natural finish, but I don't know if the wood grain below the varnish is anything to look at. Can you advise? BTW: Love the intro song and your unorthodox style of playing the bass guitar 🙂.

You can actually leave that shim out between the bridge and the blocks it help with getting better sustain and tone without the shim dampening the block contact

soooo, call me dumb but locking tuners are just a creature comfort that make string changes easier right? they do fek all to tuning stability?

Which would be better for an LTD F-50 FR ? 13.75" SCALE . 42mm but I believe they come in 10,12,16"radius. Just get a 16 n file?

Great song. Love the diamondback. I'm torn between if I should get binding on the neck for a diamond back or not.

If the floyd is dive only can you still tune to drop d without jacking up the tuning?

So I’ve just bought the stage 2 second have and it’s on version 1.4 and the app on my phone is 1.2. The app and stage won’t connect via blu tooth. Is that because they are different versions? When I go to connect it says blu tooth isn’t enabled and do I need to update the unit via my lap top. I was hoping it could all be done by wifi

somehow the onscreen button for landscape mode is not present on my device.

Thank you so much you really save my life

I am considering this for a Stratocaster...do you apply a sealer to the body?

Each patch has its own master volume at the top of the screen. You adjust the patch volume from there. The knob itself is the master volume for the unit. I do agree, I loathe the volume difference between clean and gain patches. It's like that on most units aside from Ampero.

You can get a special tool for adjusting intonation on a floyd. If you block the trem and use the tool it's slightly less awful to do intonation. Skyscraper guitars makes a set of tools for floyd setup that make it much better.

I’ve done all those mods on guitars myself. It’s really fun & I always learn things. I wish I could do guitar set ups for a living😂. I have so many guitars that if I go ahead to change strings on 1. I usually do 2 or 3 while I have the time 😂✅. Great Job Enjoy & Rock n Roll 🤘😎🇺🇸🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Cheers 🍻

"3 Floyd Rose Must do's" #1: Remove Strings. #2: Detach the Floyd Rose; bridge & nut from the guitar. #3: Take the detached Floyd Rose; bridge & nut from the guitar. #4: Promptly to your trash bin and drop them in. Close the lid.

Try intonating the guitar, then put the locking nut on correctly. I can change strings on a floyd as fast as you can on any guitar. Everything youre doing here is a compromise, when your guitar isnt set up correctly. Try that first.

Nice. I might have to do the same to my old Carvin. The nut it came with is a bit odd. For whatever reason the B string got cut lower than the other notches and it constantly makes this high pitch buzz when it's played open. So I've been wanting to replace the nut for years. Since I've got locking tuners it kinda makes sense to go with one of these. And I also tend to block the Floyd Rose alot too so I might have to try the Tremol-no too. Thanks.

So you're a lefty who plays guitar right handed? Me too,

Thank you so very much for filming this. I am currently learning so much stuff about the floyd rose, i was worried i could not change my tuning anymore! I feel reassured, thank you!

could have saved some money and left the locking nut on but remove the locking pads. will work better than any regular nut and never have to file for different string sizes... plus if you want to lock it again, you could

Good Stuff man! i recommend also getting an EVH d-tuna. your gonna be solid with that guitar :)

It had a locking nut for a reason when using the trem your strings loosen at the tuning pegs post the strings can shift if dive bombing it the nut locking stops that you might as well just bought a strat because it's going to fall out of tune

should've marked your saddles, unless you love intonating a floyd rose 😅

Locking tuners are not comparable to a locking nut, it will no longer stay in tune like it should without a locking nut. These mods ruin the functionality of a perfected design, but hey, to each their own.

I'm currently changing a floyd nut with a gtaphtec and was worried about it not fitting well, and leaving a bit of a mess. You may have just saved my life. (And my vintage Strat that I stupidity put a floyd on in my younger days). 👍

Maybe he forgot to mention that you just need to do that for half an hour or until your arms are sore, let it sit overnight and go through the same process everyday for a month 😂

Hi, I have an Ampero Stage 2, how do I install the Android app? I downloaded the Ampero II Stage Setup V1.0.2 for Android file but I don't know how to install it on my phone. Thanks for the reply

Why not just rise the whole tailpiece instead?

So did the app ever work?

Hi Dan, thanks for your review. With the save button you can save a single patch. I miss the button to export (save) all patches as a backup on my Mac, like with most modellers. Could you indicate how to do this?

Does the second input work with a second guitar or bass? If so, have you tried with two at the same time? Curious if the unit can handle it. Cool video!

Please note before commenting This video is nearly a decade old. For achieving and for those wanting to look up eg Jazzmaster Warmoth Floyd Rose hopefully for inspiration for their build.

Use that mf bridge :(

Does this prove, EMGs make any guitar sound good?

👍👍

Is it possible to connect a phone to that modeller and use the camera app? (Wherein the audio will be from the ampero)

Correction - Guitar is made Mahogany wood Neck and Body - lost my mind for a minute

Your guitar looks more interesting
