Hi,

Before I was wondering why my floydrose wouldnt go back and forward properly but I found out if you turn the screws at the back strings it levels it up, so I done that and its working great, however my strings are a bit away from the fretboard now and I like them close-ish.

Im sure ive seen this before and how to fix it but no luck so far.

I just want the strings to be closer to the fret without the floydrose un-leveling again.

Thanks,

Rowan
