Adjusting Expert classic rock trem

If I want to adjust the trem from floating to lying flat on the body, will this change the height between the strings and frets? When the vigier guitar is built, do you set the trem to float or is the trem set flat on the body then raised to the floating position? I'm curious to know if I tighten ...

Excess 4 bass d-tuner/xtender - H20400C - M4 discontinued

Hi, I am thinking of getting a Hipshot H20400C - M4 (there is a previous thread that it fits the Arpege 4 - so I assume it will fit an Excess 4). I checked the internet: it looks like this product is discontinued and there is no stock anywhere. Can anyone suggest an alternative product? If there's ...

Goodbye Excalibur supra, welcome Expert Classic Rock

In the guitar shop today, I tried a GV Rock in matte black and an Expert Classic Rock in Marie-Antoinette blue (in pictures I always thought it was a glossy blue, but it's actually matte - still very nice). I played it through a Bad cat head + 2x12 bad cat cabinet - I don't know which model). The ...

Re: Replacing 2011 trem with kahler on Excalibur

Hi, is this possible. I would get it done by a luthier/ repair shop. Thanks. Any luthier you'd trust to install a Kahler would know it's possible from looking at the guitar - It's just a matter of whether you want to fill the old routs on the front or back, or paint over what you filled. If your ...

Excalibur pickup selector replacement

i need a replacement pickup selector for my Excalibur as it often cuts out if I knock it or nudge it when turning the volume dial, or if I change between pickups - which i often do. What spec should it be? It' was made in 2012.

Planet Waves American Stage cable?

Tried the American Stage in the Excaliber. I was able to wiggle the cable connecter in the jack socket resulting in signal cit out. Will stick with switchcraft connectors.

small amps?

Played a ESP LTD Les Paul with EMGs through an Engl Gigmaster which both sounded excellent together. Imagine it would sound great with the Excalibur too of course but the shop did have any.

<t>I&apos;ve tightened the posts lightly until they don&apos;t turn anymore and I&apos;ve raised them slightly. I couldn&apos;t hear any noticeable difference and I don&apos;t think it matters if that&apos;s what you&apos;re worried about - but I&apos;m not an expert.</t>
