    Fender Floyd rose Classic mod ideas?

    Same here, +1 on the Lukather kit. My strat doesn´t have a Floyd, but I changed the original trem to a Wilkinson, also the tuners are now Gotoh locking tuners. Oh, and I did the 18 V mod for the PUs.

    Atomic CLR long-term reliability

    I did not, I just exchanged the big power supply, that didn´t solve the problem. So I exchanged one of the small power modules next and that was it. Trial and error - or not. Mine made crackling noises and the tweeter cut out. So you might have a different issue. But usually its the power supply.

    Atomic CLR long-term reliability

    replacing a power module is not a big deal, even I as an electronics noob was able to do it. You just have to find out which one is dead as there are four inside.
