Floyd rose upgrades (FU-tone)

[Deleted member 8761]

Does anyone have experience with these Floyd Rose upgrades? Is it worth it?

The bell brass sustain blocks bring back some of the warmth you lose with a Floyd.

I’ve got a Brass block on one of my Charvels, and a Titanium on another(off eBay for 70 bucks). Titanium string blocks too. They do make each guitar more resonant; brass being darker/warmer. My vintage Jackson, seems to be perfect with the stock block. They improve a thinner sounding guitar for sure.

Thanks. Interesting, I didn't know that a brass block would make it sound darker/warmer. What about titanium, is that brighter?

I didn't know that either. Have one that came with my MIJ Wolfgang. Love the guitar so it must be working. None of my myriad of other Floyd guitars have them.
