If you don't the string action can get higher, and the string will be harder to press down at the first fret. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Sometimes string doesnt reach the bottom of the slot if it's too narrow. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Now, if there is a floyd unit on the axe, it's not possible That's why I dislike floyd rose trems You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
