Hi there - recently installed a new 6 screw trem on my guitar. Had to fill and drill then outer screw in front of the low E.
When redrilling I got it slightly out of line so it's about 1mm closer to the nut than the other holes. It's also ever so slightly wonky so the screw itself leans back towards the saddles slightly.
Is this gonna cause any tuning issues? The saddles can be moved to compensate for the slight wonkyness, but will the tilted screw cause any issues with the trem returning to zero? I have it floating so when pulling back I can get about 2 semitones out of the G string.
Thanks! Go easy on me, it's my first attempt!
