okay good to know

I know he is lol. I accidently called him at 1 in the morning and then he almost did the same cause im in japan. had a good talk, john is a stand up guy.

And lastly, how much space should be between the strings and the humbuckers?

So I went to my local music store a town over last night and got a few tools needed for setting the guitar up. I got it as close as possible to what someone posted a few replies above. My question is, could I potentially go a little lower on the action? It’s still well within playable and...

Oh wow, that is freakin sweet.

hmmm... I need to go buy a feeler gauge. because I can tell you now, my strings are no where close to that. I measured the back of the tremelo, its sitting about ~1/16" off the body of the guitar which did straight out the tremelo black a lot. now I just have to work on string height, adjust the...

well I got it as close as I could, what is the proper clearance for the string? mine are buzzing on the frets.

okay ill do that.

when the tension is off, it floats freely and sits flush against the body of the guitar. the screws are honestly as close to 2.5mm as theyre going to get. I spent about 2 hours in total making sure the gap was correct. I just don't get it :/ if I go any lower, I run the risk of breaking the screws

okay here are the pictures.

Yep I sure did. And that’s what has me stumped. It couldn’t be any closer to 2.5mm than it already is. It just doesn’t make any sense. And when I put the springs on it puts the block right against the body of the guitar.

hello all, I was installing a Mann made tremolo on a PRS, and I installed it just like the instructions said but when I put the springs on, you can see the block and it seems like the tremolo is way too high. Any have any experiences? I have a really nasty metallic buzz coming from the strings...

Somethings you shouldn’t put a price on. The level of quality between the two is worth it. It’s not an upgrade, it’s a tonal change. More sustain, you get more of a resonance in the guitar itself. It’s a joy to play through an amp or unplugged. I love it.

Yup! I love tele’s almost as much as PRS. They’re a blast to play and when you get one that vibes with you they’re hard to let go.
