Floyd Rose releases Stone Tone granite block

[mmolteratx]

I've had great success on Guitars, Bass, Acoustic, Piano, harp, cello, violin and viola.

Just because my description isn't from a Doctorate Graduates perspective doesn't mean I haven't worked with them.
I am not here to discuss in depths of my technology or my sources yet I wanted to post about some attributes to the technology/product.
The 2 patents and 3 Trademarks are all on public FILE @ the USPTO.
No matter any natural material whether solid or liquid if man alters that material from its natural state it becomes man-made.
Metal is heated to a liquid..
Granite is Quarried.
I've posted the press release purported by Floyd Rose based on there findings about the product.
Your brass blocks and so on don't come from the earth as such.. Enjoy some good reading because there is allot to cover if you have the time.
Once you hear the Rock Block.

Care to comment on why one of the patents listed on your tremolo block (7,645,345) is for a detergent?

Where are the before and after clips? Where's the data to support whatever decrease in signal loss claim you're making?

These things 1) should be easier to post than diatribes on liquids vs solids and having to come up with so many different superlatives for your product and 2) would actually help you sell something.

SURE, there are current 2 patents and 3 International Trademarks. The one of the 2 patents you are referring to, there were 2 numbers that were a typo and since then has been corrected. The correct patent # is 7,645,354 B1

Where are the before and after clips? They been posted on the previous page but since your so interested here you are..

I have a local pro player thats done few you tube demos but the real tests will come from Floyd Rose and there A list artists than post the several I have to prove the point. I posted here to give folks a chance to ask valid questions to understand the concept better until FR releases the marketing that everyones asking for. Mean while check this link out and hear what Scott Gailor has to say..

https://youtu.be/qGNuDsUWdxg This link should be a good start, there are more short clips there as well.

Where's the data to support whatever decrease in signal loss claim you're making? find me on face book and there is more there to view.

I can't make them quick enough, and I have NO problems selling. Floyd Rose is the exclusive International Distributor for the Stonetone® Products.

^ I don't understand. We can be patient.

Plus, you must already have some data to have come up with your 30% less signal loss claim. Even if it was you with a stopwatch timing an open E note, we want to know where you're getting your claims from.

EDIT: I just saw that your response was confusingly mixed in with my quote. I'll check out your links, but it'd be helpful to repost whatever you have on Facebook on here.

So far the technical description of Stonetone is "this sounds great and you should buy it because OOGA BOOGA MAGIC DUST".

We aren't arguing that you have spent time developing your product, we are curious as to where you're gathering your claims from

I wanted to post about some attributes to the technology/product

That's fine and dandy, but you haven't posted any attributes.. just hippie marketing jargon. I'm still curious, which of the 14 known crystalline structures are you referring to when you said "a crystalline atomic structure which is ideal for sonic transference" in your press release? That is a topic that you specifically pointed out in your own product description, and yet dodge the question when asked about it.

if man alters that material from its natural state it becomes man-made.

You altered the stone whenever you polished and drilled it, which makes it man-made. Just sayin'

Watched the vid. He was using two completely different guitars, one with a stock block and one with the granite block, and I couldn't really tell the difference. Poked around a few of the other vids, and again, there was no actual comparison with other things. Just people playing guitars with the granite block.

We're (or at least I'm) interested in comparisons between stock blocks and the common oversized brass blocks with the granite block: in the same guitar. Otherwise, who knows what effect the block is having?

You've made a claim about decreasing the signal loss by a specific amount: 30%. Where did you get that from? Is that data on your Facebook page? Can you just repost it here? Thanks.

 

[moltenmetalburn]

I would like to try one albeit not at that price. The only way to know is to try it, I thought a brass block would have marginal effect and they proved me wrong.

I'll be stopping by the local countertop places dumpster ASAP.

A buddy of mine has a machine shop is that presumably where this stone was cut and drilled? On metalworking machines?

Masonry drill bits and wet saws are cheap. You could make one of these in 5 minutes Sauvé

Sweet thanks Nate! Nice gamer tag drop lol!

 

[moltenmetalburn]

Soooo, the posts by the stone tone guy...

man the lack of punctuation, wild uniciorn horn claims, science fiction data. Ugh. I hope English is his second language.

Even if this is the best sustain block in existence, this threads' existence is totally fail.

Smooth move stone tone, you came to the one place that wouldn't just believe your claims as truth from the tgp gospel.

This is rig talk, where we shred guitarlatans to pieces.

Bring data, punctuation and a less defensive attitude next time .

+1

We are just random formites responding to marketing claims. We do not have to prove anything to you Stonetone, but you certainly have a lot to prove to us.

??? Transmitter? Really ... Transducer is the word you should be using.

I don't think you are in a position yet to be correcting us

He. Led by the initial 'science' speaking if the 'heart/core' being solid stone.
Fair enough. Lets go with the mantle for liquid stone. The musical mantle.

I found an exceptionally petrified pile of dog poo at the park the other day. Wonder if I could mill that into a block?

Might sound kinda shitty.

All the scientifics aside, I'd just settle for a clip that I could listen to and tell a difference. I did not hear any in the one I listened to despite the guy raving about the differences he heard. A test with 2 different guitars means nothing, it should be the same guitar and amp at the same settings with the mike on the cab untouched for both recordings.
Yes, I'm old and have less hearing than I once did, but I would think I'd hear something
With all due respect, I'd love to find out it was true, but we hear about this kind of stuff every 5 days... An above noted test would settle it

This was my experience as well. Despite the failure to provide any data that shows an increase in anything, I still wanted to hear it for myself. The video posted here was completely useless. I can go plenty of places and here people talk about crap sounding great! As far as endorsers go, there are plenty of big names that will put their name on anything for the right $.

Here is a link to a different set-up, permanent embedded Rock Block... to a 63 Firebird. Enjoy folks

Great, a totally useless demo that exhibits nothing other than that guy is obviously endorsed by stone tone.


Give me some free blocks and ill wear your t shirt while actually a/b testing the damn thing.


You are ruining any chance of rig talk adopting these blocks. In fact we may be the reason people don't want them once this permanently searchable thread is read.
