Why is my Floyd Rose always out of tune?
1) Your most likely issue is the guitar's setup itself. So before you assume it's the bridge, have the intonation, neck angle, etc checked. If that's off, the bridge won't function correctly. 2) The setup of the Floyd itself has 2 critical issues.
Can Floyd Rose be tuned down?
Thanks in advance. Yes - you can tune it lower - I'm assuming you mean going for drop C or B or whatever. (1) You will need to set up the Floyd Rose again - but you can do it yourself if you are patient. (2) Heavier strings will help - if you lower the tuning, light strings will flap around.
What order do you tune a Floyd Rose?
In other words, tune the strings as follows: G → D → B → A → High E → Low E. For now, it doesn't have to be perfect and it's probably better to leave a little slack since the clamps at the locking nut will also tighten up the strings when they're secured. Please note: New strings fall out of tune quickly at first.
