The LTD Phoenix 1000 Evertune Review (OOF) :( 

Hi. This is Herbert from EverTune here. I've been watching your channel since back when you started getting into exploring the Kemper Amp. If you want the EverTune bridge to be active and at the same time allow for bending and vibrato, just as with any regular guitar, then you'll have to set it up accordingly. We suggest to specifically place the saddles inside zone 2, just at the edge of zone 2 towards zone 3, so that the EverTune saddles are active while you play and keep the strings balanced at all time, and so that any bend or vibrato will push the saddle over the edge into zone 3, where the EverTune feature is no longer active and the string will behave as with any regular fixed bridge, but will come back into zone 2 afterwards. This way you can play the EverTune equipped guitar like any traditional guitar and always know that it will remain in perfect tuning. You don't need to choose between stability or expression, with the EverTune you get to have both. The way you position the saddles at the bendstop position this is you keep picking the string while tightening the tuning peg until the note starts increasing in pitch, then back the tuning peg off to where the note is back in tune again. This will have the EverTune feature active across all strings while allowing for most natural vibrato and bending. I'm assuming you are new to the system. Let me know if you have any questions about the system including the setup, and I'll be happy to answer them.

if it's any help with regards to the evertune bridge, you can effectively sort of setup the amount of tension required to bend strings, which is quite unique while still getting the benefits of a stable tuning, (ie. setting it between zone 2/3 to taste) when you first change strings there's going to be a bit of 'drift' as it were until the string settles, for context we play in drop B , i usually swap the strings maybe a week or so before with at least 1-2 band practices in, i don't have time to tune between our songs live, so the evertune bridge is a huge help, not to mention the improved intonation otherwise tried the fishmans in an rgd/evertune setup, the voicing was also not for me , very tight/rolled off bass and almost like you've got a TS constantly engaged
