      Hi. The Floyd Rose 2 base should be compatible, jackson base is zinc alloy and the floyd is steel. An upgrade imo, Id look for a floyd rose 2 base. cheers!

        Replaced whole trem with a GOTOH Floyd. Very nice unit. Came stock with brass block. All steel.

            I've only heard good things about Gotoh, for the most part.
            They've made the Jackson logo'd tuners on USA Jacksons and some old Japanese models since the '80s and '90's respectively.
            96xxxxx, 97xxxxx and 98xxxxx serials oftentimes don't indicate '96, '97 and '98.

                was it a direct swap? i have a GOTOH, but it has a YUGE sustain block, i'd need to order a smaller block
                the blocks are not interchangeable
