Racer X Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 "Floyd Rose", at this point, is almsot like saying "Kleenex", so what KIND of Floyd Rose are you using? An Original Floyd Rose? A Schaller Floyd Rose? If youlet us know, we MAY be able to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mammoth guitars Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 An original FR studs are placed at 25 inches on a 25.5 inch scale. To determine if there is a difference needed for a MM version, you will need to find the center intonation point of the saddles. Then measure from the point where the string contacts the saddles to the center point of the pivot stud. Subtract this measurement from the scale length and you have the "default" drill location for the studs. This same method can be used for most any tremelo.
