Brilliant. Just a logical solution, that doesn't involve selling something to us.

Great idea, i would make a clamp out of it some how, that way you could do different scale lengths. I know it's rare, but it still could happen. Still one hell of an idea. I love your channel by the way, stuff everyone Luthier should know.

Very cool. I love Floyd Rose tremolos. I would love to have a Floyd on one of my Strats.

What a brilliant idea. Super inexpensive tool that takes virtually no time to make, and could last a lifetime. I would make one with 2 T-O-M bridges at opposite ends for 24.75"/25.5" scale lengths. Many possibilities for adaptation (metal yardstick, solder/weld...). Love it.

How much I like Hocus Pocus from Focus it was still a distraction. Interesting otherwise because I still have a tele kit guitar lying around waiting for a FR

Why not make the bridge adjustable so you're not locked in at one scale length? Love the background music, btw.
@hectorgatica99Ай бұрын
I’m no luthier but I assume this wouldn’t work because the frets would also have to be moved to account for the different scale lengths. Your intonation across the fretboard would be thrown off. I’m guitarded though so I could be wrong.
@clutch2827Ай бұрын
@@hectorgatica99 I'm no pro either. I think you would have to know how far back the saddles are on the floyd if this tool is to be adjustable. The length from the nut to the 12th fret should be the length from the 12th fret to the saddle, right?
@hectorgatica99Ай бұрын
@clutch2827 Mmm, well, the spacing between the frets is fixed on the fretboard to match a scale length. So regardless of how much you're able to much the bridge and saddles, the frets need to be moved so the spacing between the frets is the right length. Else, if you only move the bridge, you can have a spot on 12th fret, but everything else is way more outwhack than a guitar naturally is (unless you have tempered frets.) This makes sense to me but yea I'm sure a more experienced tech/luthier can confirm/deny this. Would be a very cool guitar if it could do that.

Hocus Pocus by Focus??

Awesome idea and great Jig! It didn't mount the same, but I installed a Kahler trem on a guitar when I was in high school and it took quite some time to line it up even with the provided templates.
