Those wood inlays are so damn rad.

Alright some updated pix.

With the original wraparound bridge. Checked with Jackson's office and they couldn't tell me the make of the bridge. It's such a pain to set it up!

Was torn between the dimarzio's steve's special and SD TB-14 Custom 5, and went with the SD in the end.

One big question: Kahler flatmount bridge (7300) or stud mount bridge (7200)? Or leave it be???

*The top is flat from the fret end till the bridge area, so the 7300 should fit... or barely.

I like that guitar just how it sits. I don't care how the bridge looks. It looks fine as it is to me. How does it feel when you play is what my concern would be.

The bridge holds up fine. It just takes time during setup. The guitar? Smooth as butter

I'm just used to a trem, even for subtle effects. Personally, It just feels .. incomplete lol

I think it looks fine as well. As long as it plays fine. I'd be down with it.....I would leave it alone...

Yeah, I'm just used to a trem too. I'm butchering a limited run Fender deluxe because I want a Floyd. I hope I don't ruin it.

Yeah, a lot of people in this thread don't like it because it looks different that they're used to... That's what I love about this guitar, it's really different from the standard Jackson CS order.

No Floyd for that guitar...I'm not a Floyd fan...all hard tails for me...I've got lots of floyded US and custom Jackson's to trade you for that axe if you want an OFR, just please don't butcher that axe! I held/played one similar at a NAMM session many years ago and I fell in love with it. My favorite one there.

I love Floyds too, but if I had this guitar I don't think I would dick around with it. Seriously it would be a crime...
