Floyd Rose FRX

[stevie_bees]

I'm looking at getting one of these for my Fret-King Esprit. Which US website would be the best place to buy one? They're costing between £260-300 in the UK and about $260 in the US. I won't have to pay any import duty on it here in Gib so even with increased shipping costs I should still get a better deal.

I'm still trying to figure out the mechanics of this thing.

Re: Floyd Rose FRX

Just found out about these (news travels slowly under the rocks), and it looks like a good idea, so long as you've got a stopbar.

Jackson's extremely poor decision to favor the string-through, no-stopbar-tailpieces-evar design has now been made exceedingly clear since the FRX requires stopbar posts. Can't put one on my KV2T, which is the only thing this guitar lacks.

As well, they should've done the nut so it completely replaces the original nut but still mounts the same way. The Kahler-style "behind the nut nut" has never worked because the nut itself is the problem, not the locking system.
