The great Floyd Rose Big-Block Shootout.

I'd just like to say...

Can't wait 'til next week...

You are going to be stoked!

And by all means, feel free to post your findings to remind the twin troll bitches why they're perma-owned afterwards...

[Coyote]

Keep in mind, this one's gonna be B-blocked from the get-go.

I have a feeling it's gonna be my #1...

True, but it's still going to surprise you - and if you currently have anything else with a Floyd and a standard block, or even A/B it with a buddy's - it's going to sound like sh*t in comparison to the Big-Blocked one.

I bet it becomes your #1 too!

FUCKIN PWNAGE x INFINITY !!!

Call me crazy but 1) It kinda sounds like he's got the volume pot backed off in the first sample, and 2) I don't like the tone in the second.

(1) Yeah, he must be getting paid off..

(2)You are truly ignorant and tone deaf!

Is that what this brass block is supposed to represent, loss of high tones? If that's the case I'm staying with the original.

Same goddamn principals as the use of a brass nut instead of bone or plastic... Increased tone and sustain! Dumbass!

Try and keep up, Shorty...

This Adam guy doesn't really care so much about the finish, does he.. I'm not placing my palm on that rough unplated shit for hours on end!

This is probably something you won't have to worry about. Stick to your Thai Floyd knockoff on your Charvette and you shouldn't have any worries.

Meltdown in 5, 4, 3, 2....

It's well under way.

I'm enjoying the show...


LMAO @ the shock and awe campaign .


Ahh, I can see it now... GARfail BUTTfail

Does a Jackson DK2 with a JT580LP count?

Why no solid lead blocks, then..

[Blackflag]

Ti is non-toxic...which is why it's used (besides it's strength) in hip-replacements. Dummy.

Yeah, there's no oxygen in there, genius. He said titanium oxide.

"titanium dioxide . . . International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has now classified this substance a potential carcinogen "

What is Titanium Dioxide?






Now that's real owning. Not the weak "your mom" type.

Why no solid lead blocks, then..

When was the last time you saw a lead bell. Dumbshit?






...Did you eat a lot of paint chips as a child?

[jhale667]

Because it would probably sound like ass.

Ti isn't it toxic when oxidized?

OK, since it seems we lost a few posts, let's re-iterate, and re-clarify: The saddles and non-toxic and will NOT rust, they're pure Ti. They're not plated - they're sand-blasted, because it was discovered in the prototype stage if you plate the saddles, Ti is so slippery the strings may slip out. They won't with the sand-blasted finish.


In conclusion, Re-Pwn3d.

Quit parroting Adam's bullshit like you understand the inherent problems of metallurgical bondings during the plating process.

I mean, if you're gonna parrot something, ask him why he's too lazy to figure out how to polish shit?

He's the guy who did the Dtuna? That thing's got wild polishing streaks all over it beneath the plating, like the fucker who's doing the polishing can't wait to catch the Pacoima bus home to eat his fucking menudo supper..

When did he say anything about the metallurgy coward? He simply said it was too slippery. And now your a metallurgist too??? Electroplating is not so much about metallurgy, it is about surface prep and proper current. So shut your cock garage...

It's proven daily - GAyR's a fucking idiot.
The "parrot" comment is somewhat ironic coming from the biggest GOOGLE parrot on all of teh interwebs. It'd be nice if HE stopped "acting like he knew" FUCK ALL ABOUT ANYTHING...

And yes Ball-GARgle,
If you HAD the ability to comprehend anything you read, you realize I said nothing of metallurgy, and wouldn't have made the idiotic plating comment again...congrats on the self-ownage!

Welcome to the family, Mr. Slash...

he claimed to have a theramin in the trunk when the good vibrations thread was active.
