4. Clearance should be no less than .005" and no
more than .015".
5. To increase clearance‚ loosen (counterclock-

accomplished by tightening (clockwise) the
torsion rod adjustment wheel.

proper clearance has been achieved.
Tremolo Bridge
The Peavey Floyd Rose
®
-licensed, double-locking tremolo sys-
tem features a locking topnut, locking bridge saddles and a
steel bridge plate with a massive brass inertia block for maxi-
mum tuning stability, sustain and tonal response. This tremolo
system has been carefully adjusted for accurate intonation,
playing ease and pitch change. To adjust this unit properly,
you must first understand the operating principle. The strings
are clamped at the locking topnut and bridge areas, ensuring
increased tuning stability during use.
Proper tremolo action is also a result of accurate balancing
between string tension and tremolo spring tension. This
instrument has been set up at the factory with high-quality
Peavey Elements™ guitar strings. Should you desire a larger or
smaller gauge of strings, the spring tension, and intonation,
must be adjusted. For string changes, and in case an adjust-
ment needs to be made, please read the instructions carefully.
String Retainer Bar (1)
The string retainer bar is used to pro-
vide the proper amount of downward
string pressure over the locking top-
nut. This should be adjusted only low
enough to keep the strings in contact
with the surface of the locking top-
nut, which will prevent the strings
from going sharp in pitch after tight-
ening the locking topnut.
Locking Topnut (2) (at headstock)
With the supplied 3mm hex wrench, loosen the three locking
topnut screws to allow the strings to pass through the string
slots. Tune to pitch and tighten locking topnut screws until
snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS.
