I'm in NJ. Let me know if you find someone and if they actually do a good job.

I do use my trem. I'm a big fan of Floyd Rose trems, but I admit they take a bit extra work to restring and get in tune (though once in tune, I ride the heck out of mine and they stay in tune perfectly). Getting this PRS for me (granted it's an SE) was an experiment to see if I could get away...

I first started playing guitar when I was 12 and nobody every taught me how to change strings properly. In 2004 I bought a Gibson Les Paul and the first thing I did was put a new set of strings on it and it just didn't sound right. I brought it back and the luthier at the GC was like, "Who...

I've got an SE Custom 24 that had tuning issues as well (and still does but not nearly as bad). I had a luthier file out the nut to accept 10's because it was setup for 9's and the spaces were too small for 10's. Now it stays in tune fairly well but if I use the tremolo it goes out of tune...

This is what I've always done, too.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. We'll see. I'm still jammin' on it at home where I can more easily deal with the tuning issue (as opposed to at a gig where it would be a PITA to do it after each song) and getting to know it a little better. If I end up getting attached to it, I'll hang onto...

I see a used Torero in my future lol I only paid $400 for the guitar used, so I'll probably consider just buying a Torero. Thanks for the quote, though!

Awesome ...thanks man!

I actually have been looking at it. I want to see how much it's going to cost to get a FR installed, though. Then I have like a one-of-a-kind ya know? I mean if it's a crazy amount, then I won't do it, but if it's reasonable I would do it. So I'm a noob ...what is PTC? And how would I...

So I'm kicking around the idea of getting a Floyd Rose installed on my SE Custom 24. I live in New Jersey and was wondering if anyone would suggest someone to do the job locally? Also (and I don't even know if they do this kind of thing) I'm 2.5 hours from the PRS Facility in Maryland and have...

Ok well if anyone is curious just let me know.

LOL yeah I saw that, too! Sweet looking guitar ...love the color.

That was pretty cool. I'm pretty sure I can do that. If I'm feeling froggy I might do it and post it lol

Lmao ...right?? I was saying it would be "blanking" AWESOME if PRS opened another shop like up in Millinocket, Maine where a Canadian-based company has bought (and then closed because it was their competition) the paper mill which was the life blood of that town. That was the only spot in the...

I would copy/paste the whole post, but it already got a thread locked and since I just got an infraction, I probably shouldn't. But if anyone is reeeally interested, I'll forward the PM to you.
