    Heh... I was thinking of buying an Ibanez RG 570 with an edge bridge, but the tone on the stock pickups suck so much........ I could not bear to sell my godin.

    1. I aim for rougly 3 turns, and I have even tried "locking" the string exiting the peg in between two of the turns as recommended by a friend. 2. I would get a locking nut, but is it really practical with a bridge that doesnt have tuners on it? It is a 6 point strat style bridge. 3. I am pretty sure there is no nut binding going on, as I have had a guitar tech replace the nut with something that will not allow binding. I am also using relativly light (9-42) gauge strings.

    Actually, I have tried replacing the nut with something a little less restraining and have had varied sucess with that. The reason I am so ancy about locking tuners is that they are 100$ CDN, and results arent guarenteed. soapbarstrat, I am curious, what does removing screws do? Thanks, Paul

    Are you guys sure its a spring tension issue?

    Will locking tuners work to the point of where, say, the strings are floppy? (or near floppy stage) I dont have a Frose style bridge, just a standard strat bridge, so a locking nut would definatly be a pain in the ass. heh. Whats a tremsetter? :O Thanks, Paul

    Well, I have a Godin SD. I like this guitar a lot, the tone and feel, etc. The only real thing it lacks is a means of staying in tune during my.. ahem.. most dramatic whammy useage. I have explored locking tuners as an option to keep my guitar in tune, but have been told they wont work to the point I want them to? I am looking for any mods (besides putting in another bridge) that will help me keep my guitar in tune during whammy usage! Anything! Thanks Paul
