where can send my guitar to get a floyd rose installed?

where can send my OLP MM1 to get a floyd rose installed? I read the other post and just dont have enough confidence to do it myself.

Check with your local music stores, ask around...

I'll do it for you if you pay shipping back and forth and throw me a couple bones [img]images/smilies/icon_thumb.gif[/img] Otherwise you are looking at as much as $200 for a complete install, including the locking nut... Here is a sample of my work... Shoot me a PM if interested.

BTW, I was the one who wrote the article on installing a Floyd, so if you want to do it yourself I am glad to be available if you have questions [img]images/smilies/icon_thumb.gif[/img]

I would shit myself. Hypothetically seaking, how easy is it to fuck up ? And what sorta specialist equipment would you need ?

Starting at the neck, you need to route for the locking nut, and if not careful, you could shorten the length of the fretboard which would be very bad... Need to shim neck, if not properly shimmed you have action problems and setup issues. Moving to the body, if the pivot screws are not perfect, the guitar strings will be off of the fretboard. Very bad. May need to take out some wood from spring cavity, and could cut into pup cavity on other side of not careful. Other than that it's a cake walk [img]images/smilies/icon_thumb.gif[/img]

ohhh yeah......... cake walk..... (being sarcastic) lol

El_jalepeno check you PM's

You could send your guitar to a local guitar store they could do it. but i wouldnt if i was you cause some places could do it half assed or not right. Try Guitarcenter they'd prob do it. also usually there is a waiting list for repairs u might not get it back for like 2 weeks or something.

Or you might never get the intonnation to line up either.....also very bad.

I've installed a couple....but get E.J. to do yours if you don't want to risk turning your OLP into firewood.
