Already edited In that case, the string gauge difference is pulling your Floyd up, yes? You will need to increase the spring tension inside the back of your guitar. You may have to add a spring to compensate for the extra "pull" of the heavier string gauge. But, I'd still put your action adjustment back to where it was first. http://www.fretnotguitarrepair.com/floydrosetremolo.htm Check out this link for further clarification. |

I am 110% sure that its because you change string guages, and now your floyd is our of whack...
the floyd needs to be parallel with your body... this will solve all your problems https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1c-7-VMY_w if you still have trouble after that, check to see how low your action is, it could be too low, but i doubt thats it -------------------- - Marc
