    The cable inside the springs is a good one!🙂👍 For the Floyd Rose restringing you can use the strings card package; it does the job. This vídeo is a good reminder of simple things we can do to make our guitars play better. The tightening of the tuners os an important one for tuning stability on guitars without Floyd Rose. Great video!👍👍👍
