Hello everyone, This is my first post here so I hope that I am posting in the correct thread!
I know questions about drop tuning (and floyd rose *shutter*) have been posted countless times in many forums and here as well, but I thought I'd ask for some guidance regarding my specific guitar and strings.
As you may have guessed I am trying to drop tune my floyd rose equipped Schecter Hellraiser Extreme to drop G. I knew that these trems were difficult before I made the purchase, but ignorantly found out later that trying to drop tune especially to G can run you into a lot of trouble such as, warping the neck.
I have been doing some research and it seems my best bet would be to return the guitar for a baritone or extended range guitar, but as of right now this is not an option.
SO, my question is can I safely and efficiently drop tune my floyd rose guitar to drop G with a pair of Zakk Wylde custom heavy 10-60 gauge strings without warping/bending the neck?
Thank you for reading,
Cheers!
