DSD with Floyd Rose?
My main guitar is a strat with an alder body, Warmoth maple neck & an original made in Germany Floyd Rose from 1987.
I currently have a SD JBJ in it now. Guitar sounds pretty good but I'm very interested in trying a DSD when I get some extra bucks.
Anyway, What do you guys think? Anyone have any experience or are currently using a DSD w/ a floyd?

Didn't Ralle have this setup before he went to the MM pup?

Re: DSD with Floyd Rose?
I have a DSD and floyd (mid 80s) set up. works nice.
But, I am loving my MM 1300, Callaham trem, maple neck, brass nut and '70s strat body combo.

Thanks for the replies. Very much appreciated.
So I will try a DSD as soon as I can. Maybe a mighty mite if I can find one.

Re: DSD with Floyd Rose?
I have back to back clips with a JBJ and a DSD in the "Brown or not?" thread albeit through Guitar Rig. Let me summarize: run don't walk to get a DSD if you want to rock hard. So much more chunk on the bottom, color in the mids, and singing highs.

Original Floyd w/solid Korina strat & neck (rosewood fingerboard)
and late 70's, potted DSD. BEAUTIFUL! With a DSD, distance from
the strings is crucial. Play with that to find your sweet spot.

Re: DSD with Floyd Rose?
So I should get the F spaced for the Floyd, right? F means Fender spacing?
