Floyd Rose Floating Bridge Help

[MintyMonkey]

Does anyone here know anything about this bridge? My guitar has this and its becoming annoying. I havent had a problem with it before but i recently replaced a string like normal. Then i tuned it with the pegs at the end loose and then tightened them and fine tuned it. But after a couple of seconds each string becomes flat again. So ill retune it and the strings keep on becoming flat. Im new to this type of guitar and dont know much about it so any help would be nice. I think what is happenening is that when i tighten a string it pulls the bridge up too much which messes with the other strings sound.

EDIT: not really sure how but i think its kind of fixed now. if anyone knows of this happening though say so.

On locking string systems you need to go through your strings many times in order to get them perfectly in tune. I'd recommend an plug in tuner to make it a little easier, it will take a little time for the strings to settle. I've never owned one, just played on a few.

yeah it seems after tuning it like 6 times it is finally staying. I have been using a plugin tuner that seems to work fine but yeah thanks for the help.

Get it close on the top and then tighten the bolts.

Then tune it using the things on the bridge (there's 6 of them at the far right...they turn)

If you have the same type as me that's your problem.

Works like a charm but it took me a while to realize I needed to tune it in two places to make it work.
