@Rjohnstone:
How stable is it?
Does it hold the tuning well?
How is it compared to the floyd rose that was one before?( I guess it was
an Takeuchi JT580LP 2point locking tremolo )

Tuning stability is perfect.
I'm still using the original trem posts. Works like a dream.
It was literally pull the old and drop in the new.

one more thing, has any of u purchase from UniversalJem b4?

[Special-K]

I think then I`m going to buy one OFR in black

[neuro182]

do they have OFR in smoked chrome finishes? i think it would look good on my RR3 since its trans black.

Chrome, Black or Gold... that's it.

Stay away from the FR Speedloaders. They require a pro install.
Very tight tolerances.

There is such thing as "Black chrome" Ibanez calls it "cosmo" But neither the Original floyd or the Schaller are made in those colours.

[neuro182]

oic.. i used to own an RG350DX and it comes with this so-called cosmo finished Edge III trem.. awesomest!!

hmm.. actually how do u guys find the JT580-LP? the more i play with it, the more accustomed i become.. i kinda like it now with all its dive and wham..

[rjohnstone]

The 580 is a good trem.
The Takeuchi made 580's are very well made and comfortable.
If it works, leave it in there.
The reason I switched to a Floyd on my guitar was mainly cosmetic.
I went from brushed hardware to black. Since I was swapping out the trem, and i found a smokin' deal on a black OFR, I figured what the hell.

[neuro182]

haha.. cool.. i shalt leave it for the moment.. i leave this thread open for people with questions regarding the JT580

[S-man]

The biggest problem with the new JT580, is the trem bar. All the ones I've played sucked. They become loose after a couple of uses. Fortunately, they can be replaced with something better.

I don't know why they chose to ruin a good trem with a crappy bar.

I've yet to have any tuning issues. Time will tell.

[Special-K]

yes JT580 is well made...and tuning stability is great!!
Haven`t tuned my guitar since I changed the stringsand it`s still perfect!
