    Thanks. The FR was surprisingly easy. I was worried about that. It took a bit of trial and error adjusting of the springs and the claw, to get everything right, but it wasn't the nightmare that I was worried about. I ended up with all three springs on it and the claw almost all the way in to get the action right. It doesn't have a ton of back action now, but enough for the rare times I use it that way. The stock Floyd is definitely not the best I've used. The fine tuners are pretty rough and it just doesn't seem really sturdy, but it works.
