I have a new Japanese Mustang with dynamic vibrato. Staring too hard at the whammy bar throws it way out of tune. Anyone who’s figured it out, I could use some advice, thanks.

    Stock Tremelo systems usually suck…
    your best bet would be to replace it with a Floyd Rose Tremelo system..it has a lock on the nut to keep the guitar in tune when you go crazy with your whammy bar.

    If you’re going to use it at all you have to change to locking tuners anyway –
    Sperzals or Schallers are about $60 at musiciansfriend.com. If you’re gonna dive bomb with it then you need the Floyd Rose Setup.
