    Some older OFR had saddles with beveled edges. I have one like that that's about 20 years old and I've seen them on other guitars aswell.

      How has your's kept up on your Stars RRJ1?

      Cause I know many have had problems with pings stuff but the FRT0200 is ok then it's not so bad, I would feel kind of cheated but they do say it's the FRT02000.

      Is it as good as the ofr?

        Some more fuel-to-the-fire. My RR24 FR is the same one in the 2nd pic. (not a Ping!) Now that's the same exact Floyd that's on my 3 EVH Charvel's! So there FRT-02000's also?????

          The only way to tell would be to pull the Floyd.
          A German Floyd will say Made in Germany on the underside, the FRT-02000 will not. That's the only difference from an appearance perspective.
          So unless someone told you, you probably couldn't tell which one was which when it's installed on a guitar.
          According to the EVH Charvel spec sheet, it has a "Floyd Rose® Original™ Double Locking 2-Point Tremolo".
          So it should be German made.

              ^^^^

              You are correct sir! Thank you. The EVH's DO have the stamp on the underside. (thanks to a dental mirror) The RR24 I cant tell because it's resessed and I,m not going to pull it just to find out.............

                  Yes but we are talking about the trems. It would be more correct if they specified the origin of the floyds that come on these guitars. Its stamped with floyd rose and therefore people would be right to assume its an original (german made).

                    That's what he meant. He meant that no where on the Trem is it stamped "made in Germany" on an RR24.
