ok so i just picked up a pack of d'addarios .13 -.59 and for the life of me, i cannot restring my guitar. ive never had this problem before, then again ive never bought any gauge thicker than 11-56 before today. my first problem was that when i get the strings in the saddles, ill start to tune up and the tension is so high that one or more stings will just pop right out. so i loosened all the strings, switched some of the saddles around thinking that maybe that was the problem, and as you know, with a FR trem, when there is no tension, the trem sits flat on the guitar. now when i tighten the strings, the trem doesnt rise any. so the tension is there, but the trem takes no effect to float. and i have a benefit show to play for a girl who passed away in a couple of days, and i need this guitar restrung with these strings in my usual A# tuning.
WHO CAN HELP ME?!?!?!
