Yes , all you need to do if the guitar doesn't come with one is pay someone to drill out the inside of your guitar. I'd recommend just getting a guitar with one equipped with it as it will cost between 300 and 400 dollars to do everything I've heard from people online.

if you're thinking of getting a whammy bar honestly go with a kahler, you can mount them right on the guitar and do everything even the best Floyd roses can

Can you put a Floyd rose on a ibanez grg170dx?

you can put a floyd rose on pretty much any guitar , but since you'd have to spend a lot to cut wood out of the guitar and all that go with a Kahler 2200 or hybrid , there's other brands which you can go with that do the same things as floyd roses without the wood cutting. it costs 400$ last time i checked to route a guitar for a floyd rose, either spend that or half that on a kahler, its up to you


Floyd Rose or Kahler?

they both do a lot of the same things, Kahler doesn't stay in tune as long but the hybrid model can go into hard tailed mode meaning like you can all of a sudden switch to normal guitar mode and swap to any tuning or string gauge if you grow weary of it. Plus it can mount right onto a guitar where as a Floyd rose needs to cut the inside of your guitar to install the springs and stuff. both can do divebombs, flutter.. everything, on youtube for a very comprehensive look check out Floyd rose vs kahler DMO guitars is awesome for guitar tech info.


How do you install a Floyd Rose tremolo on a Peavey Patriot that has no tremolo installed?

you'd have to cut some wood out of the guitar like any other Floyd rose installation, to do so it costs about 300 or 400 dollars from what I've heard from others, but if you want something cheaper go with Kahler, they mount right on top of the guitars body and its still a whammy.

Can you put a whammy bar on any electric guitar?

Conceivably you can put a whammy onto any electrice guitar, but it in reality it is a lot of trouble of modification to do so. Answer: You can really only put a whammy bar on a guitar that has a Floyd Rose tremolo bridge. Most Ibanez guitars come with these standard, although some Fender/Squier guitars have a bridge similar to a Floyd Rose, but only whammy bars made by the Fender will fit in the hole. (at least what I've tried) And it is possible to set up a Floyd Rose on any guitar or bass, it just takes a lot of work, and a lot of knowledge because there are some vital parts in a guitar that you might not know what they're there for, so seek some professional help if you are a little uneasy about modifying your instrument.

Is a guitar with a Floyd Rose bridge a good choice for a fist guitar?

Not really. A Floyd rose bridge is a spring-loaded affair and is usually accompanied by a locking nut. This makes the guitar very difficult to tune, as the tension of one string effects all others. Tuning adjustments made to one string will have small effects on the others, and once the guitar is in tune, if any of the strings are broken, all strings will instantly be out of tune. The Floyd rose can be very finicky, definitely not a good thing for someone whos just starting out.

Why does a guitar have tuning keys on the end of its neck?

When the guitar was invented in the 1600s give or take it was the easiest way to do it as we didn't have locking nuts or sophisticated tools to really do it any other way like we do today. Gibson and Fender in the late 40s early 50s when they where designing their guitars they probably found this the best way to do so. but npt every guitar tunes from the headstock, Steinberger and a few companies like Floyd Rose and Kramer have them on the bridge or body of the guitar. Speedloader floyd roses and tuning pegs on the headstock.. whatever the case in the end as long as the string stretches and hits that speed to create the note thats what it comes down to.

Is b.c rich warbeast standard good for metal music?

on a warbeast yes, its got two humbuckers and the higher end WMD ones have a Floyd rose and EMG pickups. things to keep in mind though: any guitar from vintage les pauls can play metal thick strings make the guitar sound heavier master palm muting and pick harmonics, very important for playing metal amps and pedals are just as important as the guitar good luck
