If u want a Floyd an Ltd kh602

#

It would have to be used

hearty falcon
#

do u have one without active pickups?

night pelican
#

Do u want a Floyd or just any trem

#

Ibanez rg450qmb maybe

#

That is passive w a Floyd

junior lance
#

Charvel DK24

#

easy

night pelican
#

I forgot about charvel

hearty falcon
junior lance
#

done n done

hearty falcon
#

this one is JUST out my budget tho...

#

do u have one for like around 900 euros

junior lance
#

then get the one that isnt a floyd rose

#

the regular 2 point trem versions

night pelican
#

Or get a used one

hearty falcon
#

do they have 24 frets?

junior lance
#

thats what the “24” in DK24 means

hearty falcon
night pelican
#

I thought 24 was the number of strings it had

#

Like if it is to good to be true cheap don’t buy it but other than that it’s not really any riskier then buying a guitar online

junior lance
#

especially for a guitar like the charvel dk24

#

its not like kids and beginners are buying and using it

#

its people who know how to take care of guitars

hearty falcon
#

cause i found a charvel dk24 with a case, for like 730 euros

junior lance
#

everyone who owns one is pretty much a serious player

hearty falcon
#

floyd rose

junior lance
#

its not gonna be damaged to shit

junior lance
#

if u know u dont need a floyd rose

#

the regular version with the regular tremolo is easier to manage and maintain

#

the regular tremolos high quality, its a gotoh 510

#

if u even remotely use any other tunings and dont just stay in E standard

#

u might wanna consider the regular trems

hearty falcon
#

for me its just e and d standard

#

d standard for the tech death hype

#

but thats it ig

#

wouldnt mind a floyd rose

junior lance
junior lance
#

you would lol

#

u cant just go to D standard from E standard casually in a couple minutes on a floyd

#

youd be resetting up the entire trem and balancing it again

hearty falcon
#

i hear you

junior lance
#

which is like a 30 minute ordeal each time

hearty falcon
#

i gig

night pelican
#

Wrong convo

hearty falcon
#

but i cant gig anymore with this harley benton 😭

night pelican
#

Anyways digitech drop or boss xs1 exist

hearty falcon
#

thats true

night pelican
#

I’d still consider 2 point trem but those r an option

hearty falcon
junior lance
#

yeah, any charvel with that type of trem

hearty falcon
#

"The headstock has some cosmetic damage"

#

so basically a scratch

hearty falcon
#

"Beautiful guitar, practically new, with two superficial scratches on the back, visible in the last photo. The model is from 2022; this one is now two years old. It plays and sounds wonderful. Unfortunately, I can only play one guitar at a time, so I'm trying to thin out my collection a bit this way.
A five-way switch lets you choose five combinations of the two humbuckers, and a separate active/passive selector also lets you make the humbuckers sound like single-coils. With all these options, you have a guitar that leans toward more modern sounds, but within that palette, it sounds like every color of the rainbow. It plays smoothly and quickly, with a good, stable whammy bar."

junior lance
#

all charvels are more or less the same

#

hearty falcon
#

Update
I've misplaced the decimal point in the neck relief tables! They should read:

7.25": 0.012"
9.5" to 12": 0.010"
15" to 17": 0.008"

Setting up your electric guitar can completely change how it feels and sounds for the better! In this video, I'll show you my easy step-by-step method to setup an electric guitar.
