It's on the way folks...That's right Tremol-No Porn...

[slukather]

Scott.

would there be a need for it on the Luke? I thought they where a pretty stable unit already

 

[puppyonacid]

Yup. i'm signed up. What a cool invention. I have a guitar with a floyd rose and I have always thought that for the tuning they were more hassle than they are worth. This seems to solve all that in one swoop!

The Tremol-No is not like the TremSetter, or other 'stabilizers' or spring-loaded "return-to-neutral" devices.

Think of it more like a selector switch for your trem:
Position 1: Full Floating.
Position 2: Dive Only.
Position 3: Hardtail.
(I call them Modes, but you can call 'em whatever you'd like.)

You pick which bridge configuration will work best for you at the time. It only takes a couple of seconds to switch between them.
All on the same guitar.

Is that you opening the beer?

Let's see....
-You certainly weren't at my place that weekend.
-Mike Martin (a UV777PBK owner) has his test unit in an RG.
-The only one left is Bob Oakman, but the last time I spoke with him, he said he had finally properly aligned his.

So, the question is: who's UV777PBK?

The Tremol-No installation instructions are very clear about how important alignment is. It doesn't take more than a few minutes to make sure everything is smooth, with no binding. Then lock the set screws and you're done.

Unless you change setups or string gauge, you shouldn't have to adjust it ever again.

Hey Kev....good to see you up in this piece...

Gents...this is THE GUY so treat him nice.

 

[beej]

Well hey- welcome Kev!

Really great to see some innovation on this front. I think it's a fantastic idea and it looks to be really well engineered. Always root for the little guy

I'm all signed up too.

It was Bob's the weekend of Jan. 20th.

It locked up fine, but if you pushed the trem down all the strings would stay slightly flat. If you pulled it up, they'd stay slightly sharp.

 

[Kevan]

Well, it sounds like Bob didn't get the alignment adjusted.
It only takes a couple of minutes, but he's so crazy busy I'm amazed he has time to change shirts. LOL Next time I'm in Nashville, I'll take care of it for him.
BTW- is this the same Jeffrey from Glensite?

Oh, and no- that's not me opening the beer. That's my friend and ex-neighbor, "Butterfingers" Pete. I'm behind the camera.
That's not my fridge either. LOL

 

[OrangeChannel]

Sounds like Bob needs to lube his knife edges...

I've tested for Kev hence all the spamming I do and it's so easy to set up a retarded monkey on barbituates could do it with one hand...

 

[Kevan]

Well, I just talked to Bob (about other stuff, but this also came up), and he's recently diagnosed the issue: the trem posts and/or inserts. The tuning issues he's having aren't related to the Tremol-No.

Hmmm...one-handed monkey, eh? I might have to try it one-handed sometime.

 

[slukather]

Yeah the trem on the Luke 2 is stable, but l use different tunings, and l rest my hand ob the bridge, so the pitch changed as l play, l've already blocked the birdge, but l think this will be a better solution.

Scott.

 

[OrangeChannel]

indeed it will.
