I bought an Ibanez S whatever with the Edge 3 and that trem is junk! Put this in and within 45 minutes had it dialed in and working great. Holds a tune really well for the few days I have had it.

Apenas pagaba 75 euros por este Floyd Special y lo pedí con dudas de que fuese auténtico. Ya en casa comprobé que es bueno, viene en su caja con sus instrucciones, perfectamente embalado y sin señas de uso. Por qué tan barato? y venido de UK, con los aranceles incluidos...., sigo sin entenderlo. Sin duda ha sido un gran acierto.

I've had various 'licenses' or copy Floyd Rose over the years but the quality of this Floyd is incredible by comparison...and these are the cheaper range too! Blown away, thank you.

This Floyd Rose dropped right into my Ibanez RG270 with only minor mods to the body for clearance. All in all, it took less than 20 minutes to replace the old "Licensed by Floyd Rose" which was a poor quality tremelo at best.After stretching the strings and setting up the string to spring balance, this bad boy holds tune like a pit bull on a bone! Even radical trem use is no problem, it just stays in tune.The area where the base plate meets the studs is where the old Floyd Rose had problems. After a while it develops divits or flat spots which can be filed out but return quickly. Having a Floyd Rose is a lot of work, setting it up and maintaining it, but it is well worth the effort. One of the best purchases I have made in years. I have been playing for 50 years and do all my own luthier work on my guitars. Having used many different tremeloes thru the years I can honestly state this is a gem of a device.

I bought this to resurrect my old trusty ESP. I had retired it a few years ago due to the work it needed done to it. Among the things needed was a saddle insert change, but instead of fighting the corroded inserts out of the saddles, I decided to upgrade the bridge altogether. I made them mistake and didn't pay attention to the nut size, it comes with an R2, and mine uses an R3. I kept the original nut on it and it works perfect. The black nickel finish looks great and compliments the original hardware of the guitar. the bridge functions super smooth and is very stable returning the guitar to perfect tune even after some harsh divebomb abuse. I would definitely buy again to upgrade any of the "special" bridges that I have.

Package is good. And its original from floyd rose. The trem bar is squicky though. Its annoying when you pick the arm. You can hear that squicky aound. It feels light in my handa. But all in all the quality is good. Just be careful when adjusting the screws as the metal construction feels weak.

I purchased a Schecter online five years ago and the tremolo would never work. Shut your told me that they want to be the ship the guitar to them which would’ve cost $100. I tried all kinds of spring configurations and settings along with those block stoppers and nothing seem to work. So finally I purchased this tremolo and it was easy to install. It looks great and it actually works. I Hammered on it all day with strings that were already broken in and The tuning was only off a few cents.

Why I gave 5 stars. First off, I'm not comparing this to the 200.00 German Floyd. I'm comparing it to what you're probably looking to replace, lic. floyds, Ibanez Edge 3, DL's, or the 20 dollar crap from China. So, comparing, quality, price, etc. Yes this is extremely better than those mentioned. I have some real floyds and they're amazing. I had a Jem jr, that I wanted to strip down and build up and the idea was to do it as cheaply as possible but at the same time upgrading it. So, I bought this FRSpecial. And I have to say, that I'm impressed. I've seen some people comment that the tuners are a little tight, which is true however, nothing a little WD-40 or Liquid Wrench won't fix. This fit perfectly into my Jem jr. Same with the mounting studs, I just pulled out the old ones and these slid in perfectly. It does not come w/ a Brass block, however you can order one for like 30 bucks. I had one laying around in a box of accessories, so I just swapped them. Once I got it in, adjusted and set right, it's great. I can tell a huge difference over the "DL" trem the Jem Jr's come with. And I've seen some say they can't "flutter" with the FRSpecial. That's the first thing I tested and flutters just fine. Where as the "DL" was hit and miss. I'm probably going to start using the specials more, just to save cash with my upgrades and builds. They're great and probably the best for the price. If you shop around, you'll see they're half the price of the German (that's like 2 for the price of one German Floyd.), and not much more than the crap from China..These are made in Korea but for Floyd Rose, you can order these from the Floyd Rose website. So you know the quality is way better than the Chinese trems and the lic. etc.) I can't say enough about them for what you're getting. I had once ordered a Trem (lic. Floyd) from guitarfetish.com for 85 bucks it's ok, but not nearly as good as the FRSpecial and again, it's a Floyd. very well worth the price..I highly recommend these if you're looking to replace garbage Trems or even lic. floyds that come on entry level or intermediate priced guitars. And again, these fit perfectly in the Jem jr.
