I got my RG1527 from a guy called Ewan here on ss.org (great to deal with and really helpful btw) a while ago. Now I've had a few trem equipped guitars, but Im not the kind of guy who goes on fiddling with the trems. Hard tails are OK but trems not so much. I took the guitar to the shop a few days after I got it. The guys at the shop screwed the intonation up on the B and E strings, so I decided to take matters in my own hands and setup the damn thing myself.
I have this impression that you get a tool to help you in the whole process of intonating your Edge tremolo but I (think) dont have it. So I did the harder way of removing the string, loosening the screw, moving the block, string back in, tune, check intonation. I got the intonation spot on after ten or so minutes. I congratulated myself for a job well done, I tuned, locked the nut and tried to fine tune the string. The pitch of the string doesn't change and the screw feels really light. Shit.
So since I suck with tech stuff Im now asking you, fellow ss.orgers, is my trem broken or is it just about me not getting something?
