i realised i've been saying standard E, while i should be saying standard B.

yup, it's a 2077. i am aligning it using the base of the trem, so i can tell that it is leaning too much. it's not as easy to see if the knife edge is perpendicular to the post, due to the curved side.

another curious thought: wouldn't using less, but shorter, springs give the same amount of tension to balance out with the strings (standard B)? if so, wouldn't the bridge be as stiff?
