« on: April 28, 2012, 04:31:05 PM »
Malaki ba difference sa mounts/routing ng Ibanez ZR sa Floyd Rose? Or pwedeng direct replacement?

di mo gusto yung ZR? i had one on an S470 dati and i liked it. the only other trem i liked that much was the Edge on an old RG550. and the ZR was much smoother too. flutter effects were always just a light flick away (if you take off the zero bar).

I was actually thinking of doing the reverse - transplanting a ZR on to a formerly floyded guitar. Pero mukhang mahirap nga, I've seen the trem cavities and routing, ang laki ng difference. Oh well.. :-P

According sa staff sa Audiophile, wala. Case to case basis daw before you can purchase one from them.

Tama. Mga 18-20k, meron ka nang RG/S na may ZR trem na. Hindi ka na gagastos for mods and a separate guitar to put everything in.

Very tempting talaga. Kung may tools lang ako eh (and if I can find a cheap ZR system) siguro pinag-experimentuhan ko na yung isa sa mga gitara ko. If the parts I need come up (and cheap), why not >:D >:D >:D

I have one. Still thinking of selling or using it instead. Now I know its value.
