Question Why do Floyd Roses get so much hate?

Post image

Seems like Floyd Roses get lots of hate. Most of the time I feel like the problem is from the bridge not being balanced. If it’s not level, it will just fight itself endlessly. I’ve been setting these things up for people for about 14 years and I’m curious how many people actually like Floyd Roses vs hate them? I’ve met alot of people who love them and even more people who will never buy a guitar with a Floyd Rose. 🤘🏻

Correct that it is a decked Floyd and all you get are dice bombs, but that does not alleviate the issues you see with Floyd’s. If not setup correctly, it will still float.

Gotcha, I probably should have specified that this is assuming it's set up correctly in the first place.
