Newb here, Identification question. Pics.

definitely JK20 Pro from Musician's Friend. I have the same guitar, only in black, and I love it. Where did you get the Schaller-made JT-590 trem and what'd it run you? I would like to replace the JT-500 on mine too. What SD pups did you put in it? I pulled the crappy Kent Armstrong M213 and M214 pups out and put in some stock Jackson J70's and it made a world of difference! Good find. I got mine for $150, but with a BC Rich case (which actually fits it pretty good, just need to find a way to get that horrible BC Rich logo off the case!)

If I'm wrong, someone correct me, but I believe that the JT590 is similar to many other Schaller made bridges used by Gibson, among others, and that they all are of similar specs.

The JT590 is an amazing bridge. The one on my Soloist is fantastic. I don't mean to highjack the thread but, can any Floyd bar work with it? I've been looking at replacements but I can never tell.

LOL Already did that. I now have a shiny black "B.C. Rich" logo on my guitar case. Well, at least if that's the classic JCF answer, I know I fit in here!

They should since schaller makes the real german floyd rose bars.

Nice looking guitar.

I got the JT-590 on eBay, for $49.50. It was a little rough, I had to soak it in WD-40 and do some scrubbing to get it clean looking, but the knife edges are fine

I did say this in my recent post with all the changes, but the pickups are SH2N (Jazz) in the neck and SH6B (Distortion) in the bridge.

And I second the Sharpie on the BC Rich logo, that or spraypaint or (classic guitarist!) stickers appropriately placed.

JT-590 is made by Schaller in Germany, and the parts are interchangable with any Schaller licensed Floyd and the OFR AFAIK.

Here's the bar I'm using with mine: http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Bridges,...g_Tremolo.html

EDIT: I might add, that bar is actually made by Schaller.

Another kennslp school of photography graduate!

I have to ask, I did some quick searching to see if I could find the answer, but I don't know what this means. Are you saying my pictures look like ass, or they are good ones, or the quality is ass but the photos are good, or the quality is good but the photos are ass, or what? lol. Or complaining about the gigantic files?

I tried to get closeups of the important details, because I know it's a PITA to try to look at that stuff when the photo is tiny and taken from like 6 feet away.

Just curious, I'll laugh either way, I just don't get the joke!

No big, dude, it just bugs when I see the end of the headstock outside of the shot (Post # 12), some guys here are notorious for that. Jackson pointy headstocks are such an awesome, iconic and much-copied design it's a shame to see it cut off.

[cixelsyd]

Hahahaha! I'll be careful next time! Thanks for explaining.

cixelsyd, I sent you a PM.
