kahler tremolo issues

Post by dave ms »

Hi everyone, new user here. I wondered if anyone can help me. My Cantrell Rampage keeps going out of tune with note bends on the g string! When I originally bought it, the dealer told me that the string was still stretching out. I half believed him, but I loved the guitar so much that I took a chance. It's been non- stop disappointment ever since. I contacted Kahler about it, and they wrote it off as a set up issue! Translated, once you buy it, you are on your own. I guess that is why 90 percent of the guitars out there have floyd rose bridges on them! Any input would be appreciated, I love the guitar, but I'm VERY disappointed with Kahler. Do you think G&L would take ownership of this since Kahler won't?

Welcome, Dave! :wave:

I have posted a reply to your other post on this here: Kahler tremolo issues.

Which version of the Cantrell signature do you have? Care to share of photo of it?
