Floyd Rose number two @shroprockdoctor removed from the @electriccircusuk had significantly corroded preventing the low E string saddle hinging therefore rendering the fine tuner inoperative. The saddle pin required drifting out to give access to the corroded faces. Now reassembled with a dab of lithium grease to hopefully keep the rust reoccurring. #guitarfx #guitar #rackeffects […]

@shroprockdoctor today refret of the first of Eds @electriccircusuk Charvel guitar is underway. Fingerboard leveled & frets sorted to length as I opted for packs of precut wire.
