hi guys;

i'm currently using ibanez grx40 (yeah, it's not really good, but it works). it's a strat copy, so it has the same problem. how do you block the bridge? i'm not using it anymore since it always ran out of tune. i read about people blocking the bridge, but never found the steps. anyone of you guys ever tried this?

thanks

no it's not floyd rose. it's a standard fender bridge. if floyd rose, i'll be a happy guy .

anyway blacknuke, thanks for the link. finally i got some idea how to block the tremolo. so they actually use a block to block the tremolo .

currently i'm using 3 springs. screwed the claw all the way. the bridge is flat on the body but it still able to "float" around. i've found the solution already. already got my wooden block .

i think so. there seems to be some tension, but i think it's out already since this guitar is quite old. the claw is not all the way in(approx 1cm gap left, can't turn anymore), but the bridge is quite flat on the body, can't pull the tremolo anymore. better block it just to be safe.

thanks again for the link. fixed a block behind the tremolo. a few more minor adjustment and it'll be done. even managed to find the time to repair the rusted string height screws. appreciate the help.
