Matia Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Hello guys! Just wondered if anyone has any experience with the drop d tuners? As in installing them and getting hold of them! Can they be applied to any trem system or do you have to actually buy a dedicated unit? Any info would be appreciated! I'm looking at using one on a floyd type bridge... exact model not known... cost me 10 quid at a swop meet! haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeAR Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 I had an EVH one and it worked fine for me..........gotta remember tho, the trem has to be flat against the body or blocked to make it work. A foating trem wont work at least with the EVH one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86barettaguy Posted April 6, 2003 Report Share Posted April 6, 2003 I'm guessing you're talking about the EVH d-tuna (are there others that attach to the trem?) the trem has to be of the kind where the locking screws protrute behind the trem (like on the OFR, schaller or gotoh floyds). no lo-pro stuff. it is easy to install. just remove the standard locking screw and put the d-tuna in its place. You don't have to block the trem to use it if you're only going to fool around at the house. you will get close to drop-d tuning anyway. you will be a little off though. If you want to use it playing with a band (or recording) you will have to block the trem or it might end up sounding horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
