i feel kinda stupid posting this but im trying to get the pitch right on my tremolo when pulled all the way back ... for example i want all the strings to go up a whole step, and right now some go up a 1/2 step, whole, or even 1 1/2 steps! if this is the way the bridge is supposed to be then i guess i cant really do much but its kinda upsetting since this thing plays so awesome :(

ahhh well ... any help is greatly appreciated ;)
 
Well for starters, the SUB 1's bridge wasn't designed to float, however that's not saying you can't float it...naturally a bridge is supposed to be level, so I imagine that yours is set up on some kind of angle...and to get it to increase in pitch requires more angle, and that sounds funky...how does she stay in tune?

Anyhoo, I'm glad you love the SUB 1...what you can do is get a Petrucci, that way you can do anything you want with the trem and it will always stay in tune..
 
alright well thanks, i guess shes only gonna be used for some evh stuff hehe


and im gonna buy a petrucci when i get the money, but for the price i got the sub1 its way better than the olp :D
