Floyd Rose set up question

Hey

Is it a really bad thing if my Floyd Rose bridge is not parallel with my guitar body? Currently my bridge is leaning forewards ie, the back is higher than the front. Because I'm just finding the screws at the back much too tough to turn to get this done.

    I've only dealt with restringing/adjusting the springs on a floyd rose once, but since it was very similar to the system on my Strat, its OK for the bridge to float a little away from the body. In fact, Fender specs are that it sits about 1/8th of an inch or so away from the body. If you really want it flush, you could always add more springs.

    Thanks for the reply

    I can't wait to get rid off my floyd rose and get a fixed bridge guitar. They are too much of a hassel for me considering that I almost never use whammy.
