Sorry, I looked in the FAQ first and saw that it only had tips for re-stringing a floyd rose, not adjusting it so I didn't look. After reading up on some of those thread I started tweaking some things but can't get rid of that buzz on the low E string. Is it possible that it could be the string thats the problem and a new string would fix it? Highly Highly doubtable. I don't know about Floyd Rose Trems so I can't help you but I'll put money down it aint your strings fault Hardtail -------------------- Beginner's Amp & Guitar Gear Guide My Keeley Blues Driver BD-2 Review My Line6 Flextone II Review Guitars: Martin D-16RGT with B-Band UST & '99 Fender "Big Apple" Hardtail HH Strat Amps: Fender Blues Junior Special Edition & Fender Studio 85 (Simultaneous... yummy) |

The guitar usually comes with manual on tuning and setting it up. I bought myself 2 Ibanez guitars already and they both had that manual included.
String buzz is not a problem. You just have to raise the bridge slightly by turning the big screws on the sides of the bridge. So if you have a buzz in 1st string than slightly rise the right side of the bridge (where you stick the whammy bar) by turning the screw counter-clockwise. Those fine tuners are there for TUNING. So if your guitar is in tune DON'T TOUCH them And you definitely want to learn to fix and set up your guitar on your own. Because you'll have to do it every now and then. -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

And also I don't think you're going to have to adjust the bridge height, because your guitar was adjusted before it was shipped to the store, but in the store they probably didn't change the action (bridge height), but it certainly didn't remain in tune.
Maybe you're going to have to adjust the tension of the springs at the back of the guitar (use only tiny turns, quarter turns maximum). Look at the topics for restringing and youtube videos may help a lot (because when you're reading instructions, you might go ''I have to do what?!'' and if you see someone do it, you'll see it's not that bad ). If you have additional questions ask. Good luck! And also.. this http://www.meanstreetguitars.com/Guitar%20Tech.htm may help, look at FLOYD ROSE TREMOLO - STRING TUNING INSTRUCTIONS. |
