I'm so pleased to see this. I had to have mine professionally set up as the intonation on the low e was so bad it was unusable out of the box. The frets on mine had to be redone, a shim was taken from under the locking nut and the nut refitted. It is fantastic now but I was really surprised that it hadn't been prepared properly. I was surprised you kept the scratch plate. I had mine changed to cream and put an off white volume knob on. When I can find a cream bridge pick up I like more I'll have that put on as I don't think the zebra pick up suits it. I like it so much I tried to find money for another one to really personalise but couldn't. Thank you for posting.
@brutesmagootes3996
@brutesmagootes3996 Год назад
Man, mine was a MESS outta the box. Zero setup had been done. Heck, the bridge was pressing against the body on mine too. It was a trainwreck. I left the pickguard for now because I'm honestly not sure what direction I want to go with it. Do you have a link to the one you got?

Hard tails are for sure much easier. But even though a Floyd can be intimidating at first, once you get it down it’s fairly simple to deal with. It really just comes down to if you feel like you’d ever use a trem or not. Personally I like the option when I need it.

Amazing! I took a very similar approach last year with mine! Added hot rails in the neck but kept the JB, brass block, hipshot tuners, and D-tuna. Moved the volume pot closer to a 'Strat position and added a 3-way toggle switch instead the pull-push pot. I was wondering about the OG Floyd Rose and if that upgrade is really worthy, I may pull the trigger after watching this. Love the change to the toothpaste logo, much better look for sure!
@brutesmagootes3996
@brutesmagootes3996 Год назад
Thanks man! Yours sounds like a beast too. That's the great thing about this guitar...it lends itself very well to whatever mods you want to do. I relocated the volume as well, but I plan on adding a 2 way switch (I never use both pickups at once) here shortly. As far as the OG Floyd, IMO yeah, it's very much worth it. It's a much better built unit, and you can always sell of the 1000 and recoup most of your money on the OG.

@@brutesmagootes3996 thank you for getting back to me! Yes, I have a N4 with a German made Floyd and you can really tell the difference in build quality, stability wise though, the 1000 is fine, I’m worried more about reliability long term. I’m starting to look for good prices for the 1984, it looks the best but it is an expensive piece of kit! How hard is to change the radius of the Floyd? Do you remember how many shims did you use for each saddle?
@brutesmagootes3996

It’s not hard to change the radius, but unfortunately I didn’t write down what shims I used. I really wish I would have as you are not the first to ask. 😔 I’m gonna have to grab me a N4 one of these days for sure.

Very disappointed that Charvel didn't set up the Floyd bridge to the correct radius for the compound fretboard. I watched a review of a Fender Jazzmaster American Pro 1 recently, and the fretboard had a constant radius of 9.5" while the bridge had a 12" radius! This really isn't good for playability! Thanks for an excellent video Brutes.

@brutesmagootes3996

You're correct. But, in this current setup I'm not using it even though it's installed on the bridge. You can have it installed and use the bridge normally if it's in the out position.

Amazing job and very inspiring! Many years back I did very similar work to my 84 Kramer Focus. Regretfully traded it for a JCM 900 head. Anyway I’m looking to do another project with 90’s Strat body. How do you determine what the final radius of the Floyd should be with a 12-16” neck? Also I’ll be using a Gotoh GE1996T with 36mm brass block. Would you happen to know if the shims and fine tuners are interchangeable? Love the look of the brass but don’t want to spend the money on a new Floyd.
@brutesmagootes3996
@brutesmagootes3996 Год назад
Unfortunately I don’t know if the shims will work with other bridges. As far as the radius, that can get complicated to figure out, but an easy way of doing it that works most of the time is base the increase from the nut to the 12th fret, then use that to the bridge. So in my case I was about a 20” at the bridge.

Good catch on the Floyd radius. Everyone oohs and ahhs about compound radius but none of these manufacturers shim the saddles appropriately when they build and set up. So the interior strings are too high compared to the 1 and 6. No attention to detail. Id rather just have a straight 12 so I could get away with not shimming. Some tuneomatic guitars like LTDs will have a 14" radius and a fixed 12" radius bridge. Lol trash for 1200 dollars.

Hey Bro, I also have this amazing Guitar. The fretwork is pretty good on mine. But I think you did some awesome upgrates und it also looks amazing now. Just a question. What was the reason for you to Change the neck PU. I think the DiMarzio is doing a good job. And what is the difference of the 1984 Floyd? Thanks for your answer. Cheers Flo
@brutesmagootes3996
@brutesmagootes3996 Год назад
Thanks man. The Hot Rails is more my to my personal liking. It’s warmer and hotter. As far as the Floyd, the main things are the 1984 has brass fine tuners, a good size brass block (although I replaced that), old style trem arm (although I replaced that with a push in) but the main thing is it’s built quality is much better than the 1000 series.

well i pulled the trigger on one of the Hendrik Charvels… damn its a great thing. But I heard you adjusted the radius of the floyd to the compound radius of the fret board. Since you already done it Iam interested in which shims you used? So i can do that too, hope it doesnt matter that i still have the original 1000 series floyd. thanks man

Hey i have the same exact model, and the high E string tends to slip off the fretboard. Not very often but compared to my other Charvels i feel there is less room for error on the high string. Can a luhtier do anything about it? Maybe a complete refret is gonna solve it? The bridge is not misaligned i checked it, the problem is the fret ends are too rounded they overdid the comfort thingy :)

Most neck screws are #8 x 1-3/4". But your best bet would be to measure the stock screws and make sure the ones you order match. If you still question, just contact the company with the screws you want and double check that they will work.

@@brutesmagootes3996 From what I have found, they are made in the same German factory where Schaller makes the original Floyd on behalf of Floyd. They have a page up on their site showing the options and PDF sizing downloads. You can order nuts and bridges that have different radius. It seems pretty cool and is built of the same steel and all of the Original Floyd model they produce. Should be a drop in replacement for most Floyd guitars.
