Angled/Compensated Trem Claw:

[smitty_p]

I teased Phil from Hidden Intent for stuffing bogroll under his springs. He insists it was "tissue paper" ,,,

bogroll--- thats a phrase we dont use ENOUGH here in the U.S.--- Im on a bogroll crusade to increase the terms function and usage -- can ya'll help a brother out?!?!

Something tells me I am going to regret asking this.... but, what is a bogroll?

Of course...if ya wanna do things like Stevie Ray Vaughan, installing ANY springs at an angle is a non-starter!

He loads up the whole thing!

Apparently, SRV sometimes opted for just four springs!

Okay...

I am now informed!

Well...I’ve joined the Spring Tube Club.

I opted for clear heat shrink.

Whys everyone doin this ? I love all that spring oscilation or rattling or what ever its called on my Strat.It dont come out of the speakers so i figure what the heck.

 

[JohnnyGoo]

I run 3 springs also Smitster but i got mine angled. Bridge is floating .

 

[Cadorman]

It does come out of the speakers. Just flick those springs in the back while you are plugged in.

That doesn't mean Robert hasn't dragged us down the rabbit hole.

 

[JohnnyGoo]

Being half deaf might have its advantages lol.

 

[JohnnyGoo]

I just hate to ruin all that Strat quirkyness shrink wrapping the trem springs. It is a good idea though.

I have heard of this, but never hear any of this.
"I so confuse!!"

 

[eSGEe]

Probably broke the spring earlier ---
