The licensed Floyd Rose's aren't made as well and don't hold tune as well. A Floyd is fine if you plan on playing in one tuning. I play standard E almost always and if I need a different tuning, I change guitars.

They are a lot of hassle if you constantly change tunings, but I rarely play music that I need alternate tunings for, so it suits my style perfectly.


I find i almost never need to change the tuning but i play so much which means i need to change my srings every week or two and it takes sooo long :mad:
By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.
