thats too close to the R0

then gibson realised their mistake, funny how by adding "classic" to a headstock changes the guitar entirely
the robot tuners were quite a mess if you ask me

i think the classic is a bastardization la.

btw, first issue classics had no classic on headstock.

Talking about LP bridges, does anyone ever played and liked a tremolo for LP other than the bigsbys?

Im more interested for those that you can install yourself.. like stetsbar, les trem or the schaller LP trem.

Heard so little about these trems.. probably sucked too. biggrin.gif

seeing as its a schaller, that would be my first choice if i wanted something like that.
then again all these arent really for heavy use...so i'll pass on all of that.

yeah.. i just wanted some surf warble effect.

The Schaller one looks nice but will require the change of studs..

Pretty interested in the Les Trem, seemed easiest to install and isn't that bulky.

Another stupid Gibson bug that will never be fixed because traditionalist balk at it. All they needed to do is move the 2 middle string's tuners closer to each other but noooooo you must not change tradition...

i applaud ur ignorance as gibson are not the first with 3 a side headstock nor are the only ones with g-string issue.
as the video shows, it is issue with the nut also... but has also to do with modern preferences for plain G strings... wounded G strings do not suffer the same issue.
