jazzalicious Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Hey anyone convert their 555/535 stoptail to trapeze and if so, did it affect string tension feel or tone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitfiddler Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I haven't converted to a trapeze, but my 530 came with one. The tension is marginally looser than my stoptail 535 and 555. I doubt if there are any tonal differences between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzalicious Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Anyone who bought one of these with stock trapeze, please let me know about differences in feel especially, but also sustain and tone versus a stoptail Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanschoyck Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Lots of discussion all over the internet on such things. This one http://www.es-335.org/2011/05/18/trapeze-vs-stoptail-in-the-real-world/ has some observations in the comments section at the end that pertain to what you're trying to find out.
