It's got a floyd rose, I'm pretty new to the floating trem system. I got some annoying fret buzz on the E and A string for the first 3-4 frets, can't seem to fix it though. I tried adjusting the action, but I think I did it wrong, and I might have messed it up more.
I got nothing there. Never had a Floyd Rose system (ya lucky bastard). I'll talk to a friend of mine who has a Jackson with a FR and he might be able to give me some pointers I can pass on. Try looking around some guitar sites like ultimate-guitar.com.

Do it. It will cause me to become envious and forget any reservations I had about spending more money on records this week.

fuck ftagn
bleg. my washburn has a floyd rose on it. the pain of changing strings and nonsense far outweighed the fun of doing shit with the whammy bar. I ultimately had the bridge blocked (where they literally slip a piece of wood in), and I'm much happier now.

qft.
I got a guitar with a floyd rose a few years ago and it is a huge pain in the ass. It was great making crazy sounds for a bit, but then it was not exciting and i was stuck with the annoyance.
I have a regular whammy system, ya know the kind that "goes out of tune"? Never had it go seriously out after doing crazy shit with it. It takes about 3 seconds to re-tune it. I want a Jackson or some such because of the neck, my neck is a piece of shit.

You should bring it at a place where they know what they're doing. Get it set up and I'm sure it'll be fine after.
My guitar was doing the same at the exact same place. Got it set up and it's been great since then. It was included in the price when I bought the guitar...but even if it wasn't I would have done the same thing as the buzzing is really annoying.

True, well actually, it isn't the first 3-4 frets, it's only the very first fret on the E and A string, so not as bad. But I love this thing. I definitely will to get it set up properly though, thanks for the rec.

It gets annoying becasue when I trem pick, say on a song like Hans Siste Vinter, where you trem pick both the buzzy frets, it gets annoying. Anyways, how long do you think I'll have to keep my guitar in the shop to fix it?

I finally got around to uploading my pics from my European trip. The places I visited were London, Paris, Bayeux and Brugge.
Cool Statue in Paris
NAPOLEON! His tomb was quite impressive. Around it they also had tombs of other famous French people such as a personal favorite of mine Marshall Foch.
Me in the Louvre with Emperors Lucius Verus and Marcus Aurelius.
Me in the D'Orsay museum next to reliefs of epic poets Vergil and Dante.
Me and a Nazi gun battery in Normandy. It was a strange area because right around these decaying bunkers are farms.
Omaha Beach Cemetery. It was very moving.
The battlefield at Waterloo
