※
Before checking the intonation, fi rmly tighten the saddle lock bolts and tune the guitar correctly. When youʼve
fi nished making adjustments, tighten the saddle lock bolts and the pressure pad bolts of the locking nut.
REPLACING THE STRINGS
1 Use an Allen wrench (3 mm) to loosen the pressure pad bolts of the locking nut, and remove the string from the
tuning peg.
2 Use an Allen wrench (3 mm) to loosen the string stopper bolt of the tremolo unit; then pull the string out of the
saddle and remove it.
3 Use wire cutters to cut off the ball end of the new string.
4 Insert the tip of the string from which you cut off the ball end between the
saddle and the string holder block, and tighten the string stopper bolt to
fasten the string.
5 Wind the string onto the tuning peg, and tune it.
6 When youʼve fi nished tuning, tighten the pressure pad bolts of the locking nut.
※
On tremolo bridges not equipped with the zero cross system, removing all
strings at the same time will cause the tremolo attachment angle to change
signifi cantly, so we recommend that you replace the strings one at a time. If
you remove all strings at the same time, tuning will be easier if you wedge a
piece of cloth below the tremolo to secure it so that the tremolo attachment
angle wonʼt change signifi cantly.
Memo
• Before you tune, make sure that the string stopper bolts are fi rmly tightened.
FINE TUNING
Even after youʼve used the locking nuts to lock the strings, you can use the
fi ne tuners to fi ne-tune each string.
The range of adjustment after the strings are locked will be widest if you
leave all fi ne-tuning bolts near the center of their adjustable range before
you tune.
