Blocked the tremelo and fixed it, thanks for the help. It seems to have gotten rid of some of the annoying over tones I was having, probably was the springs.

Re: So you can have 5 electrics... (10 replies, posted in Electric)
candy green Clapton Stratocaster with maple fretboard, because they are awesome.
arctic white Telecaster, because I'm a Jeff Buckley fan but I don't want to be a poser by buying a honey blond version.
Taylor T5, for acoustic and electric tones.
white Les Paul studio.
and an explorer, because I'm a fan of The Edge.

yep you guys are right, I can see the trem move when I tune, guess I'm an idiot.

Re: Tuning Problems (5 replies, posted in Electric)
don't use the trem, its an almost never ending problem. I tune down one string and the others go high, I tune them down and the original string raises. It shouldn't work that way, where is the extra tension coming from, by the time I get it tuned the strings should be loose but they are not.
No one else seems to have this problem, I'm actually starting to think the guitar is haunted LOL.

Topic: Tuning Problems (5 replies, posted in Electric)
I've been having a pretty unusual issue trying to put my electric in open G. Every time I lower the pitch on a string all of the other string get sharper, almost half a step sharper in some instances. In fact I have trouble just tuning to pitch. If you have any suggestions as to how to solve this problem please help, its the only electric Ive got.
P.S. its a generic 80's strat, so I'm probably doomed from the start.
