Titanium Floyd Rose Big-Blocks are the shiznit.

Gar,
Your scamming/exploiting somebody over the weekend, week or years. Does not show your agility as a musician nor as a custom builder of musical instruments.


Give it up, Gar. Your anti-social behavior ( and possibly false flag furl) gives you a disingenuousness appearance and limits your abilities.
What do you think, this behavior of yours will actually get you some sort of reward? Do you really think you will ever actually get that carrot?

[GAR]

what?

As promised...

Here's an example of the Brass Big-Block on that Ash Charvel mutt of mine with the Duncan Custom. Still fat (way fatter than the standard block), but not as much clarity as the Titanium, IMO...and leads with the Ti block feel and sound more... liquid for lack of a better term...I still managed, y'know...

(Rhythms are the Boogie and Recabinet, the lead tag at the beginning was done in PODfarm)

Well, I took the saddles off (after extensive photography, natch), measured the mounting holes (12 mm's CTC), did some minor cleanup too.
Now I just gotta slap the fucker back together...

And maybe give the neck a quick cleaning, as well.
(I'm not too picky about the intonation ATM, since I'm taking this mo'fo for it's yearly check-up tomorrow anyway.)

Miller time!

Gee, I didn't know. Sorry for all the criticisms Jay. All the unfair speech.. all that prejudgemental slander was not called for on my part. Diamondjimi is correct - I must shut my trap about you in the future.

That song really plucked on the harpstrings of my heart; the vocals, the timing of the percussion. You really take alot of time working out a song and I'm pursuaded to say that if this tune shot you up to #12 on this site, you'll reach number #1 soundclick artist in short order.

In other words...

So, we can just take that useless ramble to mean you can't hear the difference in tones between the two blocks...

[jhale667]

Don't keep us in suspense...

Might as well do the cleanup, since it's apart anyway...

...After measuring, do you now know whether you're going to be able to get a FloydUpgrades block that fits, of do you have to get back in touch with him?

We'll know, when the dude sends me email on the subject.

My gut tells me (among other things) that there's a good chance of it being a good fit.

If not... Might as well invest in some ported bass cabs.

[jhale667]

Well, hopefully it will fit.



He's usually fairly quick with the responses, btw....

A strange interlude...

As a quick experiment, I took out the WD tremsetter/stabilizer...

Aaaaand 2 minutes later, it was back in. I was suddenly reminded why I installed it in the first place.

Tuning was a bitch without it, and I'd rather not mention the side-effects during double-stop bends or Townsend-style power chords.

Well, hopefully it will fit.

It's a Sunday thing, I assume. Hell, even GOD took a break on Sunday...

The repair-guys first comment: "This is gonna take some time..."
Apparently, the frets are quite worn.

Also spotted a used lefty Charvel there... 300 bucks, after they've done some touchups to it. I suspect it's a Model 3.
I'm somewhat tempted.

Absolutely not, no I can't. Not from these recordings - these samples sound lo fi. I don't know what you did with them so I don't understand the point.

I would expect added bass and I don't hear it sorry. I don't know what it is: the software, the mic or the guitar.

[jhale667]

That's your hearing aid...turn it up....

Absolutely not, no I can't.

Shock there....

[Diamondjimi]

Shock there....

No surprise. That Nutlump couldn't tell the difference between the sound of a single coil and a double coil...
