Great job! Sounds terrific...sounds like the fire trucks are heading YOUR way now!! hahaWhen you mentioned Floyd Rose, I snapped back into my late 80s-early 90s days when I did own a couple Kramers/Ibanez.....yeah, they were brutal to tune in the beginning. Just tune each string a little sharp and by the time you are done all 6 (or 7!), they should be close.

Hey gatorjj!Right! I can't get it right if I'm left-handed, right? Flat, thanks for the listen man! I never knew how much I could like Fire Trucks. I can see now, why you were doin' all that damage before. Yeah, I got a little info from some website on how to properly tune the thing up, and how level it's suppose ta' be, and all that. So it's lookin' good, soundin' good, stayin' in tune really good after a bit of excercisin', so I'm happy.I-468

Hey Ib,Just had a listen finally (sorry for being late on this). Sounds like you're getting your mind around the new toys pretty well. Nice stuff. Playing the low brass and the glockenspiel off of each other is a cool idea, not a conventional one but it works!!Congrats, you're on fire!!Mazz

Congrats Ibanez! BTW I passed up a pretty good deal on a new axe recently because it had a Floyd Rose trem . . . . I have a hard enough time trying to stay in tune without one, I think I'm a Bigsby guy.

I almost put a tremelo setup on my upright piano but I found out I'd have to reinforce my floor (not to mention it's hard to manipulate due to the tension on the strings) so I gave up on the idea. Maybe a piano capo would be a better investment?

Then maybe I can play the chords that usually contain those pesky black keys!
