So,
My 1527m needs a new bridge as the original one is not in the best shape.
I was originally going to get a new Edge Pro from Rich (IbanezRules) and eventually do the lock stud mod. This would be just under $400 shipped to AUS.
I have researched a little and noticed OFR's fit in an EP7 cavity (correct me if I'm wrong). So I was looking at the Black Nickel Floyd Rose Pro 1000.
I know its made in Korea, but I have read some solid reviews. I also know that many people will advise me to get the EP7. I could look at getting a Gotoh, but I really like the style of the Pro series.
The FR Pro would set me back maybe $250 and no mods needed.
Should I just get the EP7 and restore my unicorn to its former glory (with the eventual mod) or try out the FR Pro?
For the record, Im not a HUGE trem user. I love the tuning stability. Would the Lock Stud be a must if I'm not riding it like a bitch? So far the thing holds tune nicely but not 100%. Im putting that down to condition of the EP thats in it.
Thanks for any advise.
