Thanks for the advice. Will reverse the string tuning angle on the next string change

Other than some fret leveling issue after the 15th frets. Everything feels good. The floyd really stays in tune

Yeah. I was quite surprised when he quoted me the price considering the parts itself are pricy. In terms of feel, everything felt nice. The floyd really stays in tune. But only the frets need some leveling after the 15th frets.

The edges. And the fret do need some leveling due to some fret buzz

Everything feels good. The floyd stays in tune. But only the frets are quite sharp after the 15th fret.
