Do you mean there's something wrong with the tremolo system(whammy)Like the bridge is raised too far? Is the neck straight?

There are tons of videos on Youtube about this but I'll tell you the ultra basics.

Loosen the strings until bridge is level. Adjust spring tension on back of guitar with a phillips screwdriver (tighten screws) until tuned string tension matches spring tension.



I really like the idea of using the ring ends on the headstock. I learned from this and many videos and from doing it myself just make sure you don't break the string.
