I got a Schaller Sure Claw, fitted it today. A nice little upgrade from the original claw that makes equal spring tension adjustment very easy.

Just replace the brass fat block with a steel fat cat from Feline Guitars, I have to say that this (In my opinion) sounds better in tone than the brass block. I'm finally happy with my tone. (For now at least !)

Just to clarify , I'm on about the solid block fixed on the underside of the Tremolo, blocking the tremolo or clamping it to essentially make it a fixed bridge is another thing. Let's hear your thoughts on clamping it too.

What's your thoughts on tremolo block upgrades for tone and sustain ? Steel, Brass, Titanium, Tungsten, Do these metal types make much difference ? I have a brass fat block at the moment and I'm thinking about reverting it back to the original nickel plated brass that I had on my Floyd Rose. It's a lot smaller but I haven't heard much change whilst using the fat block. Thoughts ? Discuss !!!

It's not dissimilar to a Vester guitar I had years back, you could look them up and see what you can find. Good luck !

Done, I hope I pass, I was up all night revising !!

Iv'e just installed the stereo type pure tone jack into my guitar, being an ageing guitarist with constant tinnitus in both ears its hard to say if there's a tonal change or not. That being said, It probably is better, maybe a little crisper ?? the main thing I guess is that it's no worse !! Cheers Raven1313 for bring this item to my attention and thanks Dad3353 for pointing out there was a stereo type 'for just those cases' like mine.

Cheers for this ! I've just ordered a stereo type jack, review to come !!!!

I was intrigued by the claim to these pure tone jacks so I ordered one, unfortunately I was unable to fit this to my system due to the jack only having a tip and sleeve connection, having dare I say a non conventional wiring setup in my guitar I needed a ring connection too, this would provide a power ground which activates the system when the cable jack is inputted, without that, no sound !

For years I've been playing around with different pedals both inline and using the effects return, more recently I've been trying out digital plug-ins using Amplitube. At first I was interested in comparing my Mesa amp to the digital version but have now started using the digital pedals in Amplitube instead of my pedalboard setup. To do this I had to bypass the amp and cabs on the software and thought I'd go thought the send return but can only managed to go inline, the controls on my interface seem to be affecting the sound on the crunchier channels but sounds great though the clean so ideally it needs to go though the send return. Q. Has many one else tried this ?
