Decided to get my first floyd rose 2 weeks ago (to add to my guitar family), and this really helped me after restringing it. Thanks you so much and for all your other videos
Is it hard to restring I just got new strings for my guitar with a Floyd that I just got but I’m really intimidated to change the strings myself I’ve changed the strings on my guitars without Floyd’s a lot but it seems hard to change them with a floyd
This is the greatest video on the entire internet. Slightly more seriously, I've watch a lot of videos as I've been in a constant loop of retuning; turns out my spring tension was off, and the little hint at the start of this is how I identified that. Thereafter, tuning was a breeze.
EXCELLENT!! Bought a guitar not knowing tuning differences, failed 1st time trying to tune. Tried again mths later, failed. Almost a yr later, tried again after watching your video. Got-er done, thanks!!
Words can simply not explain the amount of helpfulness this was, k was trying to figure out my Floyd for hours but your video made it so much easier and it was really helpful, thank you so much 🤘
Mate after 30 years of owning floating trems, you've taught me how to methodically tune them up, thank you. I usually get there, but it's been Captain Chaos the random ways I have done it.
the thing is, when you tune your guitar laying on the table flat down, you may have the guitar in tune but when you pick it up and hold it, the tuning will be gone a little. You could have mentioned that in the video :) so for all of you reading this: Please tune your guitar in "playing position" and never laying down flat. Saves you a lot of time.
It literally took me years to try and tune my guitar until I found this video. Just merely putting the battery under the tremolo system was enough to make it easy as pie to tune. After I released tremolo after removing the battery, there was no change to the tuning or increased string tension. Thank you so much Man Bun Metal Head!
Thank you for this! Have had Floyd's for years and know them inside and out but never did this method of repeating back and forth from 6th string down. This is just slightly different than how I've always done it but is definitely more effective.
This has been the best tutorial man oh my god I am a teenager starting out on my uncles Floyd rose and oh my god this is one of the best tutorials to help
i been playiing strats for decades but recently stepped up into floyd land. i been fighting that thing for two weeks now and this is awesome. i had been doing back and for from center out and it just was NOT working out this makes so much more sense. thickest first gets yer spring tension right way faster. awesome video and yeah you won another sub with this video yo.
Sold my dean razorback 8 years ago and my friend just surprised me with a Dean Dimebag Stealth....totally unexpected and this video helped me remember tuning that beast. Thank you!
I'm a new guitar player and I tried another person's method of jumping from strings like tightening lug nuts with no luck your method took me 5 minutes to get it tuned thanks for the help very much appreciated new subscriber here.
I've searched hundreds of videos on RUclips and I've found yours, the only video that was able to show me how to tune that sucker!:) Thank you so much for sharing this amazing tutorial!! 🙏
You just won another subscriber lol! I've been playing for 25 years and have been using a Floyd for about 15 of those years and never once thought of this...it's great and it works! Thanks
Just got an Ibanez rg370dx and im having a headache from it going out of tune when i use the tremolo. Already paid 10 bucks to get it set up a bit since i was soo frustrated and now im here again, thanks for the vid i needed this.
I'm considering getting a guitar with a Floyd Rose and have been watching a lot of YT vids to see what I'm getting myself into... this was incredibly helpful. Thank you!
@guitarstalkandtech9085 I ended up getting a non FR guitar, lol. I needed a new main guitar but still plan to get a used FR as a backup guitar at some point
I like the way you got the top 2 strings out of the way initially, I'll have to try that next time. My personal method after 19 years: Step 1: Set the fine tuners exactly 50%. Step 2: Tune the strings one by one initially with a tuner, then retune the E string, then tune by ear using the 5th fret method. Repeat this process, always using a tuner to get top top E exact and the others tuned exact but by ear. This is faster than checking the note value since it's irrelevant at this stage. Step 3: Stretch the strings and retune with a tuner. When it's getting there, I deliberately leave the strings flat, so that when I lock the nut it sharpens the strings almost the exact amount that it was flat. Step 5: Fine tune. If you're changing string gauges, you'll have to recalibrate your spring tension so the trem floats parallel.
I tune in this order....low E, high E, B, A, G, D. I tune the G and D sharp, so when i go through the cycle again, eventually they will be perfectly in tune. Seems to balance out the springs nicely. And is quite quick, for me atleast. 🤙
Nice mate. I restringed my Floyd Rose equipped Guitar for the first time today and this helped a lot. This took some patience but other tuning methods didn't work at all
how much time did it take? I am thinking of getting a new guitar with a floyd rose (schecter reaper 6 fr to be exact) and after I read about the tuning process, maybe I should just get a normal one.
@@mevlutmertcil6105 You should get a guitar with a decent floyd rose. And leave your guitar tuning for that guitar. If you follow the steps of the restringing and consider the trick shown in this video then you will get used to it. If you do well the floyd will stay in tune very long if it's a decent one.
@@TheCritic5150 Is floyd rose 1500 series a good one or should I just get an Ibanez RG550 with Ibanez Edge tremolo? Upgrading the floyd rose 1500 to a Gotoh Tremolo is also within the options unless it requires routing in the guitar body.
@@mevlutmertcil6105 I am not familiar with the Ibanez trems but a floyd rose 1500 should be solid if you maintain it well (that goes for all floyd roses of course )
@@TheCritic5150 Ibanez Edge tremolo is the one that Steve Vai uses, it can stand a lot of dive bombs and is a battle tested model throughout decades. Floyd rose 1500 is the upgraded version of floyd rose 1000 model.
Here's a cool tip my friend taught me: if you overtune the first 2 or 3 strings a whole step, then tune the rest normaly. The ones that you overtuned will kinda fall in place, you just need to do a little adjustments.
Thank you. Never had Floyd rose and i thot it would simple just going off lengthy tutorial from memory. Used a 9v battery but I thought it would help with the bridge strings screws lol
Great vtdeo bro This is probsbly the quickest way... some put the 6 string then 1,2 ... 5th ... ten 3rd 4th Some lock each string before going to next ect... iv tuned th whole thing to C... and tigjtened my springs till D tuning... This is easy with MOST guitars
Great advice! I've tried many methods, including this one and I'm still troubled with failure. I've had this jem jr 7 years and never heard this many problems tuning it!
This was great except confusing when mentioning string 1,2, 3 etc. I had to put my glasses on to make sure you weren't actually starting on the first string (high E) lol other than that, fantastic! Really helped
@@justinTime077 haha I returned mine for the same reason but now I want one and I wish there was someone to help me in irl so I can ask all the questions I have. Did you end up keeping the guitar or did you return it
@@Alkize06 I returned it bro. I kind of regret it too, the guitar had a really great tone and was dope to play. It was special for sure, but no joke I was in a weird headspace at the time, a bit frustrated, and learning to tune the guitar made me kind of cry. I don’t cry a lot like that. I was upset that I spent $1100 on a guitar that was frustrating the fuck out of me. You can block the bridge so it won’t move, but to me that’s ghetto. I didn’t want some ghetto ass guitar. I wanted one built for my style of playing. If I were you I’d look into the Strat that literally just came out, it’s basically exactly the same, but it’s a standard bridge from what I can tell. Same painted headstock, bright colored body etc. Good luck :) I bought a fender meteora.
I figured out a better way along time ago… -Stick a flat piece of sheet metal or plastic (thick enough to not bend but thin enough to fit) under the Floyd - strap the whammy bar to the strap button with a zip tie - now the Floyd is completely immobilized, tune all strings to pitch. - play guitar for awhile to stretch the strings - remove zip tie and metal “thingy” and adjust spring tension screws to re-level bridge and fine tune as needed. 😊
Only video that got me tuned so far. Thanks a lot! What's with all these tricks of string order 3, 4, 2, 5, 1, 6, tuning the same amount sharp as it is flat for compensation, and vice versa, etc.? Doing anything but what is described in this video puts each string I move to even further out of tune and I end up running out of room for going up or down on the micro-adjustment knobs.
Thanks! I remember years ago trying to tune slightly sharp to compensate and it went horribly. Theoretically, if you knew the exact right amount of sharpness to go, it would work great, but that's never the case.
just got my first floyd rose equipped guitar and its slightly out, just the g string actually. but it sounds good when i play an open chord so i think its an intonation problem. im just going to leave it until it needs new strings and get it set up.
Hmm.. this video doesn't seem to include a section on how to go from being out of tune with tension to having all the tension released... so I still don't know where I'm supposed to start.
I do this tuning method. My bridge starts level but when I tune down even using this method the whole thing sinks down, and when I fix this it just messes everything up again
Great vid!! I´m changing strings on my floyd rose guitar for the first time very soon. Would you say that this method works better than tunning 6,1,2,5,3,4?
2:12 after we remove battery/block did he say we'll need to reduce string tension or spring tension? I don't mind adjusting springs while changing strings but would like to do normal tuning without adjusting springs
The vertical part is the Quik Lok QF-51. You have to buy each guitar cradle separately. They have one for electrics and one for acoustics. You should be able to fit 4 guitars on each side too.
I can't manage to tune my Schecter Demon 7 FR. If I manage to tune D,G,B, high E, then A,low E and B got detuned and vice versa. I tried with compensation tuning but it doesn't work either, even if I proceed string by string. Damn it! Any tips? Thanks for the video any way
I have repet the tuning process once the guitar is in tune when I lock it just go out ones strings go sharp the others flat I keep happening I unlock retune just keep repeating that .don't know what to even I I tuned lock with fine tuners the I rune out have to unlock to put them.in the middle
Geez I was thinking about getting a guitar with a floyd rose, i tune down a half step then drop the low e to c# and its constantly going out of tune, was trying to find out if locking tuners are an option to help instead of this monstrosity.
I was able to get 5 strings in tune, but my high e string was so insanely out of tune when I tuned it up this caused me to pretty much have to restart. why is this happening?
I’d love a spring tension video, but anyway is this method different with a 7 string? I have a 7 string with a floyd rose is there a certain way I should tune that? I’m very new too floyd roses 🤣
Nope, same method, just adding another string. Working on that string tension video. Oddly enough, when I tuned the guitar up for this video, I ended up having to adjust the spring tension.
The best method I have came across is grab a 🔨 hammer and smash the bridge until you get it close to pitch.. then if you have a drill just give it a couple twirls until it reaches pitch.. by then you can play your guitar 😆
This might not be the quickest method, but it's the most reliable one for someone just starting out with a floyd. Thank you!
The spring tension is pulling the strings? All this time I thought it was the master of puppets doing that
I thought it was paster of Muppets
Lol

Thanks. I'd say this is the way to go. You could do a combo of the 2. Do my method but with a 6,1,2,5,3,4 tuning order. Either way you'll get there.
Im surprised. Never tune a Floyd rose on its back. The tension changes when the strings are 90 degrees with the floor
