you're awesome -
another question
did this model come with the JT580LP, or JT590? and will a gotoh fit without any intonation problems, as noted in this link:
Schaller / OFR intonation problems

i don't care if the saddle-locking screws extend beyond the recess. i care about proper intonation.Comment

Those came with a JT580LP, but an OFR will fit. A Gotoh should probably fit, also.I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.Comment

Didn't some of the KE-3s come with a 22 fret neck?I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

the takeuchi jackson floyds base plates are made from steel, not zinc? They're considered higher quality?
i need to do a search on this forum. i know there's a lot of info out there already.
does anybody know details about these models of Jackson Floyd (in particular quality of base plate material):

The "by FLoyd Rose" model appears to be new, from the recent imports I'm guessing.
The other one isn't a "vintage 80s" - that'd be a JT-6. The listing appears to be for a recent black JT580LP, not made by Takeuchi.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

I vaguely remember seeing the Jackson By FR logo'd trem on a recent, lower-end Jackson, but I can't be 100% certain.
I know very little of tremolos, but could this tremolo be the FR Special that folks are saying comes on some of those lower-mid range Jacksons?96xxxxx, 97xxxxx and 98xxxxx serials oftentimes don't indicate '96, '97 and '98.Comment

Some of the JS Series are coming with the Jackson by FR trem. They're still calling it a licensed FR.
The FR Special comes on the X Series and is a step up from the licensed trems, but on the bottom of the non-licensed FR pole.Comment

questions keep coming
will an R4 nut work on a WRMG neck? i think they're spec'd with R2.
this project is coming along very quickly now.Comment

R2 is for narrow nuts (1 5/8" I think). R3 is for 1 11/16" (typical Jackson). R4 is 1 11/16" but with wider string spacing.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

Are all jt589lp tremolos created equal?
Are there some years/production runs that are better/not as good than others?
im scrounging ebay and they seem to be in the $30 range. But then i see a couple for quite a bit moreComment
