Changing Strings with a Licensed Floyd Rose Changing strings on a guitar equipped with a locking tremolo may seem tedious at first but with a little practice the process will become second nature. Changing one string at a time will keep the proper tension on the neck and tremolo, which, in turn, will make tuning your guitar back to pitch much easier. 4 SETTING THE FINE TUNER RANGE ON THE SPEEDLOADER TREMOLO Like the Original Floyd Rose, there are several situations that will cause the SpeedLoader fine tuners to run out of range. If this happens don't panic, the fine tuner range can be reset. To reset the fine tuner range first engage the tremolo stop and set the bridge position as described in the "Setting up the SpeedLoader Tremolo Bridge base plate." With the base plate set properly and the tremolo stop properly engaged, you are ready to set your fine tuner range. If only one or two of the fine tuners are out of range you may want to try adjusting them without engaging the tremolo stop. Step 1: The first thing you do to reset the range of all the fine tuners is to position all the fine tuner screws to the middle of their possible movement. Step 2: One way to do this is to turn the low "low E" string fine tuner screw all the way up, then turn the "D" string fine tuner screw all the way down. Now, position the "A" string fine tuner screw half way between the "E" and the "D" fine tuner screw positions. Step 3: Now, leaving the "A" string fine tuner where you set it, reposition all the of the other fine tuner screws to match the height of the "A" string fine tuner screw. You should now have all of the fine tuner screws set to the middle of their range. Ignore the fact that your guitar is now completely out of tune, we're going to fix that next. At this point you're ready to tune your guitar using the range tuner set screw. You can set your guitar up for standard pitch, any open tuning, or any drop 13 Step 6: Now check the base plate position. If it is not parallel to the face of the guitar body turn the setscrew until the base plate is parallel. Step 7: After you get the base plate parallel, check your string action. If your strings are too high or too low for you, adjust the action with the two rocker screws, using a 3mm Allen wrench until the action is where you like it. When you get the base plate parallel with the face of the guitar, the action properly adjusted, and the tremolo stop firmly engaged with the spring block, you are ready to set the fine tuner range or intonate the guitar. These procedures follow... 12 1. Loosen the locking nut that corresponds to the string being changed with the 3mm allen wrench. 2. Loosen the string completely by turning the tuning key on the headstock. 3. Loosen the saddle lock screw with the 3mm allen wrench. 4. Remove the string. 5. Remove any broken string bits with a small magnetic screwdriver or long nose tweezers. 6. Return the tremolo fine tuners to their mid point position. 7. Cut the ball end and extra...
