Kahler Tremolo

Tuning an electric guitar presents an whole new set of problems that you don't encounter with acoustic guitars particularly if your electric guitar has a tremolo arm fitted.

Before we get right into the specific methods of tuning we need to run through our intonation checklist to be certain we can get our electric guitar performing at an optimum performance level.

Intonation checklist

New strings: It's pointless spending time trying to tune your guitar if your strings are old or worn; how often you should change your strings will depend on:

(a) the chemical makeup of your perspiration;

(b) whether you wipe your strings down after you finish playing and

(c) the quality of strings you use.

Quality strings: Always use a quality brand of strings such as D'Addario, Gibson, SIT or Fender. I personally prefer D'Addario they are very consistent with their quality control and are quite reasonably priced; if you are playing a standard Stratocaster type guitar I recommend D'Addario's EXL120 set these strings are nickel wound and feature the following string gauges.

1 =.009

2 =.011

3 =.016

4 =.024

5 =.032

6 =.042

Check harmonics: Next check your individual string harmonics at the twelfth fret. It's a good idea to use your electronic tuner to help you with this...

step 1: tune your open sting with an electronic tuner

step 2: play the harmonic on the twelfth fret

step 3: compare the fretted note on the twelfth fret with the harmonic on the twelfth fret

step 4: if the fretted note is sharp increase the string length by adjusting the bridge saddle with a screw driver, we want the bridge saddle to move closer to the tailpiece to lengthen the overall string length.

If the fretted note is flat decrease the string length by adjusting the bridge saddle so that the bridge saddle moves closer to the neck of the guitar.

Remember to check and re-tune your open string if necessary each time you make an adjustment to the bridge saddle.

How to tune an Electric Guitar

Tuning tip #1: tune the open strings in this order:

stings

1 = E,

6 = E,

2 = B,

5 = A,

3 = G,

4 = D,

We tune the strings in this order to evenly distribute the tension over the neck of the guitar.

Even though electric guitars have a truss rod in the neck to prevent warping because the truss rod is round it does not prevent the neck from twisting side to side when additional tension is created by tuning the strings consecutively; this method of tuning is particularly important if your electric guitar has a Floyd Rose of Kahler tremolo system fitted; you will save an enormous amount of time tuning your instrument if you use the string tuning sequence described above.

Tuning tip #2: tuning by harmonics

* Compare the harmonic on fret five, string six with the harmonic produced on string five, seventh fret.

* Check the harmonic on fret five, string five with the harmonic produced on string four, seventh fret.

* Compare the harmonic on fret five, string four with the harmonic produced on string three, seventh fret.

* Check the harmonic on fret four, string three with the harmonic produced on string two, fifth fret.

* Compare the harmonic on fret five, string two with the harmonic produced on string one, seventh fret.

Tuning tip #3: tuning by octaves

* play the sixth string open and check that note with the fifth string, seventh fret.

* compare the fifth string open with the fourth string, seventh fret.

* play the fourth string open and check that note with the third string, seventh fret.

* compare the third string open with the second string, fret eight.

* play the second string open and check that note with the first string, seventh fret.

It's a good idea to use a combination of these methods to be certain you are in tune in every key all over the fretboard of the guitar.

B.C. Rich Kerry King Signature V Electric Guitar with Kahler Tremolo Black With White $713.93 The B.C. Rich Kerry King Signature V features Canadian hard maple neck through construction, a maple body, and a Kahler X tremolo. The maple body swirls with intense tribal graphics and the rosewood fingerboard is tricked out with large diamond inlays. EMG active humbucking pickups deliver all the roaring tone Kerry King is famous for. 24 jumbo frets and a 25-1/2" scale allow for blazing fast fingering action. An ominous Widow headstock adds the finishing touch to the wicked looks. PA2 preamp gives you a 0-20dB boost without changing your tone. Quickly kick up your levels for a lead or drive a long cord without losing high frequencies. Neck-Through Construction Neck Through construction is used on the Kerry King Signature V because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows deeper cutaways, providing comfort no bolt-on or set-neck could offer. EMG-81 The EMG-81 bridge pickup is a high output pickup designed especially for the lead guitarist. The 81 is at its best for high volume overdrive and amps with a master volume. Whether you're playing power rock and roll, or overdriving your amp, there's a razor sharp attack, and incredible sustain for brilliant soloing. If you're looking for exceptional qualities in a rock pickup, the EMG-81 is the one. The EMG-85 pickup in the neck position is the perfect complement to the EMG-81 in the bridge. It's string interface lend itself to a more natural tone perfect for rhythm. The EMG-85 boasts loads of output without becoming muddy. Flat Top The Kerry King Signature V is constructed with a flat top. The flat top styling gives a bold and pristine look to the edge of the instrument's shape. The binding on a flat top finishes off the edge cleanly and gives a sleek and clean look to the instrument.

Hipshot Tremsetter 401000 Tremolo Stabilizer $36.99 The Hipshot Tremsetter greatly improves guitar performance by stabilizing your tremolo. It automatically returns your full-floating tremolo to its exact "zero" neutral position, eliminating flutter and sag, so your guitar remains in tune.With the Tremsetter you can bend strings, play bridge harmonics, aggressive rhythm parts or mute strings, and the bridge remains stable.Best of all, the Tremsetter is total retro-fit. No need to chop up your vintage axe, just install it and play!The Tremsetter installs on your tremolo guitar in the back cavity where the springs are. When you put the cover plate back on your guitar you will never even know the Tremsetter is there doing it's job. The Tremsetter automatically brings your guitar back to its "zero" or starting position. Ordinarily, your tremolo relies on string tension pulling against the springs in the back of your guitar. It's a delicate balance similar to the way a teeter totter works. If one side is just a little out of balance, your guitar will be out of tune. The Tremsetter overrides this precarious balancing situation and brings your tremolo back to the exact "in-tune" position.You can still push down and pull back on the tremolo to raise and lower my stings. The Tremsetter works very similarly to a double hinged door; i.e., the door can swing both ways, but comes to rest in the center position. When you let go or your tremolo arm after you have raised or lowered your strings, the Tremsetter automatically returns your tremolo to it's "zero" position.The Tremsetter works on Floyd Rose equipped guitars, and will work on just about any style of fulcrum tremolo including Fender, Wilkinson, Kahler, and Ibanez.The Tremsetter stabilizes your tremolo and eliminates annoying flutter. The flutter or warbling sound is really your string energy being absorbed by your tremolo springs. The Tremsetter lightly holds your tremolo in position so that your string's energy goes through your pickups and out your amp, not into your tremolo springs. You should immediately hear a dramatic improvement in your guitar's attack, volume, and sustain.The Tremsetter stabilizes your tremolo to minimize "tremolo sag". "Tremolo sag" is what you experience when you bend a string, increasing the string pressure causing your tremolo to rock or sag forward. This puts your adjacent strings out of tune. This is especially annoying when you are trying to play country or blues style double stop bends. Also, when your tremolo sags forward, you have to bend farther to raise the pitch of your strings.With Tremsetter, you will immediately notice that your strings feel tighter and less rubbery. The string tension of a tremolo guitar in large part is determined by the tremolo springs located in the back of the guitar. When you bend your strings what you are really feeling are the springs stretching out. Once the Tremsetter is installed, your tremolo will be stabilized and you will feel the true string tension. The Tremsetter will give you al

Kahler Manifold $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In mathematics, a Kahler manifold is a manifold with unitary structure (a U(n)structure) satisfying an integrability condition. In particular, it is a Riemannian manifold, a complex manifold, and a symplectic manifold, with these three structures all mutually compatible.Without any integrability conditions, the analogous notion is an almost Hermitian manifold. If the Spstructure is integrable (but the complex structure need not be), the notion is an almost Kahler manifold; if the complex structure is integrable (but the Spstructure need not be), the notion is a Hermitian manifold.

Quaternion Kahler Manifold $79.66 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In differential geometry, a quaternionKahler manifold (or quaternionic Kahler manifold) is a Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian holonomy group is a subgroup of Sp(n).Sp(1). Another, more explicit, definition, uses a 3dimensional subbundle H of End(TM) of endomorphisms of the tangent bundle to a Riemannian M. For M to be quaternionKahler, H should be preserved by the LeviCivita connection and pointwise isomorphic to the imaginary quaternions, in such a way that unit imaginary quaternions in H act on TM preserving the metric. Notice that this definition includes hyperkahler manifolds. However, these are often excluded from the definition of a quaternionKahler manifold by imposing the condition that the scalar curvature is nonzero, or that the holonomy group is equal to Sp(n).Sp(1).
