Is this guitar comfortable tuning down to C standard?

    Hi Adam, This could work but it's not ideal. It's all up to you. Have you tried using a 25.5" scale guitar tuned down to C standard and does it work for you? IF so then I think this would be perfect. But my normal suggestion would be to use a baritone scale for lower tunings like C and lower.

      I got mine about 1 month ago brand new and have a little fret buzz and am wondering if the Floyd Rose 1000 has any shims under any of the saddles from the factory to match up with the necks radius ? I know how to do the bridge height,truss rod adjustment and add or remove saddles and intonation and need to get it done..it doesn't buzz bad but its there mainly when the guitar is unplugged I can hear it and feel it slightly.

        HI Ross, I replied to your previous question, please check it out. I see that you primarily notice the string buzz acoustically (unplugged) but not through the amp. If this is correct then you have nothing to worry about. It is normal for the strings to buzz, but you don't want them to buzz through the amp. However, it is natural for the strings to buzz because they are vibrating or oscillating in a wider pattern than the string action allows for without buzz, so there is no way to remove all string buzz, or the string action would have to be really high.

          Hi guys
          It would be very cool if you did M-1000 with TOM or LTD wersion of ESP M-I
          Do you plan something like that?

            Hi Arthur, thanks for suggesting this. There is no LTD M-1 with TOM but we will probably make a hardtail version next year.

                Hi Steven, Currently there is no hardtail version but it's quite possible we'll have one available next year.

                  I just bought an H1001 Deluxe. Super psyched to get it here so I can play it. Getting it set up for C# standard.
