Just bought an Ibanex RG370DX. I know the manual (page 20) says to adjust the spring tension to keep the tremolo assembly in parallel with the guitar body, but what part of the tremolo assembly am I supposed to use to line it up. There is an obvious one using the bottom base plate, but I have read where that is wrong.
The manual shows (poorly) that the line is drawn right to the left of the fine tuners. And yes there is a very small area there that I could use as a base for a parallel line to align with the guitar body - is this it? The picture shows the line cutting through a "hump" which is what is confusing me. There is no hump on my RG370.

I had a point to make here, but I will keep my mouth shut. Good luck getting the Ibanez set up. Floating trems can be daunting at first, but don't let it ruin the new guitar. Most places have fairly competent techs that can have it ready in under an hour for under 50 bucks.
