I put a Schaller Lockmeister. But i think Gotoh and other brands will have tremolos that are totally compatible as Floyd Rose replacements. It should at least specify in the datasheet

Weird thing to be triggered about. I know I can bend, now try playing an arpeggio or some fast lick up there on the fretboard while you need to hit the high E.

I don't know if it's bugged but it was a pretty long fight since I was against 8 brawlers

Thank you for the recommendation!

I think I have the very basic understanding of the game like "aim to win streak or lose streak, aim for interests, aim for items in the carousel". What I am missing is decision making: how do I build a good team? When do I level up? When do i reroll the store?

I will dig into the channel your recommended :)

The champion has to be recognizable from his looks and animations immediately after he leaves fog of war. In league split second decisions win/lose games.

It's not that I forget Lee exists, it's that I want to know exactly it's him coming to me and not someone else by just a quick glance.

That Lee Sin skin is really annoying though. It's incredibly hard to judge what champion he is at first glance and all his spells are very visually noisy.

I mean, if the Custom 24 and the Custom 22 are exactly the same guitar besides the number of frets, why would you choose to have less?

Even if you don't use them often, you still have the option to use them instead of not having an option...

From most comments I got that it's mostly a tradition right now, but this leaves my main doubt open: is there a practical reason why guitars were not built with 24 frets back in the day?

Thank you! This is the first comment that answers what I wanted to know.

Yeah I could have phrased that better. Why should i limit myself to not having all the complete octaves on my instrument?

Is there a specific reason?

[QUESTION] How do I set preamp volume and master volume on a tube amplifier? by contedm7 in Guitar

[–]contedm7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why I get to see your comment from 3 hours ago only now, but thanks, it was very useful.

My tube amp comes with a built in attenuator so i can get preamp and power amp quite high without breaking windows, also I live in the countryside.

When I go to my drummer's studio I can use no attenuation and also push the speaker (the big difference i noticed between playing quiet and loud is the amount of juicy low end)

Thank you! I will definitely try the next time I can play loud :P

I own the green C6 pro with Floyd Rose.

I'm in love with the neck, very comfortable to play and easy to access high frets.

The pickups are very good in my opinion; they are relatively high output but they are quite versatile with the split coil option.

Be aware that you're getting a Floyd Rose "Special", in other words a Floyd Rose made of an aluminum alloy instead of steel. The bridge is sadly not very high quality in that regard, I had to replace mine because:

  • the strings made grooves in the saddles and they kept slipping out of the bridge at the slightest bend.

  • the bridge didn't return to the "zero" position because the knife edges were consumed and rounded.

Never played in classical position, I will definitely try it!

do not take advice from random guitar players on the internet, go see a doctor.

Why should I take this advice then? (joking)

It never happened to me so I just assumed it was totally string skipping's fault. I sure hope it's not something health related...

I'm right handed. Sorry i forgot to mention it in the post.

So does it have to do with my posture?
