    D-Tuna question

    Caqn it go on my Jackson Dinky DK-2 when I get it? Or does there have to be an Original Floyd? Please help, I really want to add a D-Tuna to my Jackson...But I don't know if I can or not.

    Help is appreciated,
    DVH225

    Also, it is a left-handed guitar...Does it affect that in any way?

    The trem on the Dinky is a Jackson Double Locking System..I don't know if it is Floyd patented or not...Somebody please fill me in...

    It's sold by itself so my thinking would be sure it's for "all locking tremelos" ... not just for the floyd ... should say it right on the dtuna box ...

    Or go to freagin' D-tunamelt.com ...

    I don't use mine ... you can have it ... got a pedal? flange, echo ... floated my wolfgang so I took it off ... play in Dropped D allz de time anyway! ...

        The D-Tuna has got to be on a Floyd or a Floyd-licensed vibrato that uses the same type of tuning and bridge locking system.

            Yes I'm 100% sure, as I've got two of the bastards. Of course you can check out The Official D-Tuna Website if you don't believe me.

            The system will only work with a Floyd Rose or Floyd Rose licensed guitar with the long locking screw, where the fine tuner on the bridge presses directly on the locking screw.

                      Dtuna allows you to drop your highE down to D by pulling a lever that releases a patentned doohickey Ed came up with ... so it makes sense that it only works with floyds because seems like all the other trems' specs are different ... it simply wouldn't fit ...

                      For beginner? Sure be like everyone else ... if I were to start out again I'd buy a JACKSON dinky ... around the same price range too ...

                      I myself will soon own an EdPhase90 ... just so I can say that I have one ... lmao

                        Ok, you've got two questions there, so let me address the first one. The D-Tuna was designed so EVH could change the tuning of his E string to D, without having to unlock the locking nut on the Floyd Rose...to my knowledge there is no other solution for this on a Floyd Rose vibrato system. Check out the D-tuna website...a link is one of the above posts.

                        Now as far as Squier Strats go...I don't like them. They're ok I guess for beginners, but for 350 bucks you can get a Fender Standard Strat...Musician's Friend price.
