I stumbled across this video today via my microtonal interests and was surprised to find a very interesting looking tremolo that seems to be doing the same job as the elusive Steinberger Transtrem.

I'll keep it as brief as possible - Chris is my favourite builder and I can't say much about the quality other than it is absolutely flawless and plays like butter! After some convincing he designed this shape for me and fretted it with too many frets in all the wrong places. A real dream come...
Seen as a handful of us seem to be discussing various topics of microtuning more often, I figured it would be cool to have a general place to talk about it that isn't a tuning specific thread (thanks for those @ixlramp they are very cool!) or the microtonal music thread (so that theory isn't...

Hi guys, I'm getting closer to my dream of having a 31 guitar and am wondering if some of you usual suspects here would share your thoughts on this fretting idea. I'm asking for you to imagine what you'd think about playing this.
I'm wanting to simplify a 31 EDO fretboard tuned in 4ths to make...

So I've never tried scallops. I'm going to make myself a scalloped board to change that, and I am excited to try it. However, right now I'm sceptical about the intonation thing.
I have looked through all my guitars, and only on the ones with the smallest fretwire, and only on the frets closest...
Hi all, I'm sharing a piece I composed for string quintet that will go towards the death metal EP I'm working on.
I am inspired by composers such as Scriabin, Ligeti, and death metal bands like Gorguts. This piece began life as the initial descending hexatonic theme and variations upon it, and...
I've been thinking about this topic recently as it's quite interesting to me. Since being a member of several music groups online, I've noticed now and then questions which surprise me. Questions along the lines of "How do I count this rhythm? I'm having trouble picking up this rhythm in this...
Check it out! Been a huge fan of his since I found him, and this record is a huge step up for him. It blends styles of the likes of Zytecki, Plini, Micic etc with a more traditional hip fusion setting
This is going to be a fun one. Finally getting the funds (and time) together to finalize this design and begin this abomination that will mark the first of a trilogy of similar builds for myself.
This one is the 'Supersonic';

Hey guys. Total trem noob here. I have experience with a few vintage style trems and also a Floyd, but there's something I can't figure out.
What exactly is it that makes a Floyd more complex? I understand the balancing system and why tuning and restringing is more complex/requires blocking...

A little thread about intonation. I could go into depth here regarding true temperament frets and such but I'd like to keep the question fairly simple. For clarification, this is not a thread about temperament or the limits of 12equal tuning, benefits of true temperament frets and such. Such...
Hey all!
