Thank you now my start is rocking like never before...

@j.d.schultzsr.9215 Год назад

Signor Frudua, I have read and seen many dozens of Strat setup methods, but yours have been the simplest and most successful of any I have seen. Thank you SO MUCH! --J. D. Schultz, Las Cruces, New Mexico, USA.

@brdevilzyan Yes please check my other videos same channel "Set up your strat for best tremolo use part 1-5"

@AmIonArock 8 лет назад

Congratulations, You Sir, are now know as an authority on the subject of tremolo set up. I saw one of your video's today and then I was another website and there was a link to go here. As well as that, there were comments of people from the website that also found your information to be very helpful. And me,...I'm just a guy who likes to type.

@CYBERCANDYFLIPPERX7 11 лет назад

Frudua...Went to your site. Love your work and craftsmanship. Have learned "ALOT" from watching you videos. Built my first strat style guitar with many tips from you! TY.

Very good Javier!

Awesome! Thanks for the help.

@edsonlgomes 8 лет назад

Excellent video!

@flibo 14 лет назад

this is really clear, thanks for your videos :)

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@lucascopin Just tighten the screws on the back of the guitar and retune. Do it till the basplate of the tremolo is how you like it.

@YellowFruit01 14 лет назад

This excellent video series has started me thinking about the setup on my Strat, which has been the same for many years. Many thanks. Any recommendation on how many springs to use in a Strat tremolo (10-46 gauge)?

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@fendertender1 Hi you just have to have the two pivots replaced and the Floyd Edges sharpened. Simple!

@FruduaTv 11 лет назад

Good idea!

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@cobol11111 By straightening the neck a little more you are making the action feel a bit more confortable and once you get accustomed eith the sightly lower actio this will be fine. Allow one week playing. Resist. Also be sure the lower action does not affect your playing dynamic.

@robertpeston6692 10 лет назад

the best on the internet

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@s4wgb It always work but youo have to perform the rest of the setup for this gauge of strings.

@zextremist 12 лет назад

@fendertender1 check your top lock if it holds the strings tight. Just pull a string behind the nut and check your tuning. You might also replace your tremolo springs with a good new set.

@ROCKSTARCRANE 12 лет назад

This guy really knows his stuff. I got more from this vid than any other I've seen...

@stevenmreinhardt 13 лет назад

This worked perfect thank you soo much. :D

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

Please guys check my new youtube/fruduadirectdeal channel

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@RLHubner. Yes check my other video "How to keep your Strat tremolo in tune. Frudua Way "

@stratnuts 12 лет назад

great stuff. has helped a lot of peolpe. May i ask if you have an idea on stripped thread in tremolo blocks. ? What to do /

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@originalMOON3R The new set of strings is pulling more than the original one. Even if they still were 009/42 they are slightly different. Nothing bad but you need to setup your instrument for this new set of strings for perfect performance.

@berherbi 12 лет назад

thanks my friend super explanation, perfect berh

@flamencodiablo007 13 лет назад

grazie per tutto da Canada!

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@Guernseyopman The PRS Custom tremolo already has some of these mods by default. Check them in advance.

@jem7772 12 лет назад

love your videos. I just purchased a used Fender stratocaster 2006. I just learned the hard way to check to see that the truss rod works ! When I checked a few days after purchasing it, I noticed that the nut was stripped. I saw a tool online that is a 1/8 tapered hex that they say will allow you to adjust a stripped nut. My question is........ can we change the truss rod nut on a 2006 usa strat ? I know that fender sells the replacement truss rod nuts. Cheers !!!

@shaindaman13 11 лет назад

You're a genius! A true magician!

@00DirectorsCut00 13 лет назад

@FruduaTv ty!!

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@hockeyjockguitarist It works with any kind of floating tremolo go ease

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@cobol11111 I I understand what you mean tha answer is no. Adjusting the truss rod involves some retouch of the tuning but not so imrotant to affect the floating of a bridge to the point to make it flush on the guitar and you no longer able to pull

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@master64k Yes you can

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@00DirectorsCut00 The ones we use on the Exlusive guitars are the best otherwise some Sperzels.

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@Kitarraman La procedura è esattamente la stessa solo la parte relativa alle sei viti va saltata e va controllato invece che piloni e lame ponte siano ancora affilati.

@speedriff 11 лет назад

Talked to a luthier who knew SRV's tech. Instead of drilling the string holes (bad idea on a vintage guitar) Stevie's tech would use shrink tubing around the base of the string. It gives it something to glide on instead of binding.

@blacksnow150 12 лет назад

@stratnuts hi dont know if u had any helpful replys yet but you have 2 options ether drill and retap a thread but you will need a larger diameter trem arm to fit ,, option 2 is to drill out the old threads big enough to glue in a lenth of threaded pipe with an internal diameter to match your trem arm threads .. may be less hastle to buy a second hand / used one off ebay or sutch hope this helps

@p76493 10 лет назад

Ciao Galeazzo, complimenti per i tuoi prodotti e le tue capacità :) Volevo chiederti, il video in questione può applicarsi anche ad un ponte strato 2008? Quello a due pivots per intenderci.. Grazie :)

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

@JuxExpress This depends on many different factors but try at least 3.

@stratnuts 12 лет назад

I think this video is great ! VERY INFORMATIVE. HOW ABOUT YOU MAKING ONE ABOUT TREMOLO BLOCKS & what to do /or not to do when fitting / buying & types of ect. ect. ? THERE ARE LOTS OF US OUT HERE THAT I'M SURE WOULD BENIFIT FROM THIS.

@musicblue99 10 лет назад

Hi Good video. During the truss rod adjustment, can you give the height of the string from the fret in mm. I have a feeler guage so I would prefer to use that. Keep up.

@Guernseyopman 14 лет назад

Hey I am learning quite a bit from you videos. Thanks. Do the same rules apply to setting up a PRS Custom 24's (1987) tremolo for the best overall performance?

@z3r0sh1ft 13 лет назад

You are pretty helpful to me.

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@chimpautan Hi this is actually a NON-problem :) If you check the videos these old players they bend at hell and at the end of the solos almost all of them strikes the tremolo arm to go back in tune as I explain here. See Ritchie Blackmore videos for example here on the tube. BUT if you want to get rid of this you can mod your guitar as I explain the series of 5 videos you see here in the channel "setup your strat for best tremolo use".

@FruduaTv 14 лет назад

Yes

@fendertender1 13 лет назад

@FruduaTv thanks, ill see if it helps :) thanks alot.

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@zifirblues Does the problem raise both if you play a fretted note or open string?

@FruduaTv 11 лет назад

Good!

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@stratnuts Not sure what you mean... no threads of shich type?

@cha2x30 13 лет назад

ciao thnx for the video

@guidemeChrist 11 лет назад

not without drilling and wood filling. but you can put a super-vee on any 2-point or 6-point tremolo strat. does the same thing, just better.

@lucascopin 14 лет назад

Thanks, it's a really good video. I'm having problems now, because I've just bought a new bridge for my strat, with tremolo, and I've also changed from 0.9 to 0.10 strings...Now the bridge is too tilted towards the neck, and I don't know what to do...

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@stratnuts Could be a good idea.

@00DirectorsCut00 13 лет назад

ty very much. I'll watch it. Some suggest for machine head replacement for a MIM strat? Use the same 'fender vintage' or something better? (please make some example or link) thanks :)

@mosheasher 11 лет назад

hi Frudua. i have a Suhr s3 ....with buzz feiten system installed from the factory. can you give us a lesson how to do intonation my guitar for this system, using a normal strob tuner (not with peterson that uses programmed offsets). thanks

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@MrEgonomist HInI am preparing a vidoe on this matter. Sorry for late reply.

@Veruckt 14 лет назад

i used a couple more springs on the back of the trem and put pencile lead in the nut so it stays in tune for me 97% of the time

@FruduaTv 11 лет назад

You're welcome!

@RLHubner 14 лет назад

I already did those steps, I think it's the nut. It is too large and deep for my strings. Thanks for your help anyway. When I have time I will do everything you instructed to guitar, after all, I'm a bass player ;)

@cobol11111 13 лет назад

@FruduaTv thanks, I may have had too much relief from season change, damper.. I turned truss a fraction tighter . The neck is a bit straighter now which I like. Am I sort of correcting my problem by straightening the neck a little more ??? thanks

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@stratnuts What you mean exactly?

@RLHubner 14 лет назад

I have a MIM Strat. I can use the tremolo only bending the notes down without going out of tune. The thing is that, some days ago, I could anything to the tremolo that the guitar would not go out of tune. I really don't know what's wrong, and I'm not making much money right now. Any tips on what could do? I already did all the things that you have shown in your vids apart from the things that take money to do. Thanks a lot.

@nwbybooby 11 лет назад

ok, i have a 50s road worn strat and it has a v shape tremolo configuration. what are the good and bad things about the v shape, im thinking of getting a 5 straight tremolo spring like eric clapton

@cobol11111 13 лет назад

@FruduaTv will tightening the truss a 1/16 turn allow the tremelo to fall back a little? I have the same issue with my deluxe strat, the trem usually floats a little but is not pulling up more with tuning.... help..

@chimpautan 12 лет назад

Galeazzo, hi! i am sure many people asked you this, but, i am a blues player mainly and i bend a LOT! with you rsystem, every time i bend, specially my G string, it goes badly out of tune. It goes back to tune if i press the arm but its not possible to do it all the time. What do you suggest me to do? i want a floating trem....is there another possibility to steup the trem? Thanks a lot!!!

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@00DirectorsCut00 intonation is always last step. See my dedicated video.

@00DirectorsCut00 13 лет назад

hi, if you want to set intonation at 12th freet, you have to do what in this video after or before'? ty

@FruduaTv 12 лет назад

@Creed24Nickelback Certo

@hockeyjockguitarist 13 лет назад

are you familiar with the hagstrom full contact tremolo? if you are, do you know if this method works for it? thank you!

@fendertender1 13 лет назад

@FruduaTv Mr. Frudua, what if you have a Floyd Rose and the guitar still goes out of tune? like on my ESP whenever i dive bomb goes out of tune alot. Aldo when i pull the whammy bar back it goes to a higher tuning then normal. why is that?

@ironsteal 12 лет назад

Can you put a floyd rose on a vintage tremelo guitar?

@originalMOON3R 13 лет назад

i put new srings (9-42) on my new guitar and the tremolo bridge was bein pulled upward so i added a 3rd string. its a lil harder to move the tremolo will that effect anything or is that normal? im new to the tremolo im used to around (11-46) or heavier gauges

@gsgaN8 11 лет назад

does this also work on a floyd rose guitar? (i have a ltd kh-25 wich doesn't stay in tune)

@dimeheck 13 лет назад

can you be my personal luthier?? haha.. awesome vids, awesome person!

@stratnuts 12 лет назад

@FruduaTv having to use ptfe. tape on trem. arm becuse there is NO THREADS left in the whole ???

@Losmescalitos 12 лет назад

Do you know Borat? Nice! I like!

@GordanTrace 12 лет назад

very nice how much?

@whoohaaXL 11 лет назад

Is your "thrust rod" broken too?

@mattcorey2784 8 лет назад

love the vids, but the camera really shouldn't follow your hand up and down the paper - almost got sea sick. Tripod would make for better quality video. Great information however.

@FruduaTv 13 лет назад

@master64k Everything shown here will make the guitar perform better. :)

@SuperGuitarMark 13 лет назад

Would these videos work on a Prs Se Custom 24?

@stratnuts 12 лет назад

@FruduaTv waht I need is advice on my e-mail about having NO THREADS LEFT IN MY TREMOLO BLOCK on a Vintage STRAT. Options are too many for me to know what to do for the best.I would like to here your comments on this subject as it must have happened before .
