ok, again i apologize but i didnt get any help from my last thread about this. since my FR equipped jackson is broken due to the changing of thicker strings, i borrowed a couple of my friend's guitars, both being an Ibanez; one with a FR and one with a fixed bridge. first i restrung the one with the fixed bridge with some 13-59g strings, the same brand and guage on my jackson. all was well. played perfectly, was sad to give it back to him since that was his primary guitar. and since i couldnt really tune lower than C on his other ibanez, being the FR guitar, we just got some strings today. some ernie ball 7 string power slinkys (14-58, not counting the 7th .11g) and i just tried to restring it, but im having the same goddamn problem as my jackson! as i tighten the strings, it raises the FR. and guitar adjustments ARENT HELPING! the springs arent doing a damn thing, lowering the bridge for action isnt doing anything either. i changed the strings one at a time, and right now im tuned to dropped G and the strings are a mile off the fretboard, so im not even going to bother tuning up to my usual dropped A#.
again, sorry for posting a second thread about this issue, but there isnt any fucking thing in the world that will help this. FOR ALL OF YOU PEOPLE WITH FR EQUIPPED GUITARS, HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU CHANGE STRINGS WHEN UPPING THE GAUGE?!?!?! seriously this is really pissing me off and i now have no guitar to play with, so i cant record anything and i cannot continue to play with my band until this is remedied >:[[[
FUCKKK!
