If you have a floating trem, here is the fastest way I have found for a complete
string change. Instead of taking all the strings off, take them off one at a
time, and replace the discarded string with a new one. After you put the new
string on, bend the crap out of it-- not just by doing a normal string bend, but
stick your thumb under it and press down with your other fingers. Do this the
entire length of the string. Tune it to pitch, then bend it again, and tune it
again. Then move on to the next string. By doing this, your trem will never
leave its balance point.
One other tip- have as few windings as possible around the tuning peg. I use a
method that leaves almost no winding at all on the peg, but it is kind of
difficult to describe, much easier to show.
