I have a Takeuchi branded, MIJ, non Jackson, Floyd that was given to me. The baseplate has TRS-101 stamped on the top. I was wondering if anybody knows what brass block fitment will fit on it. I know the trem bar screws into it but I plan on popping out the collar that's pressed into the baseplate and putting in a regular Floyd type collar if I can get a block that fits. If it makes a difference I'm interested in a 42mm block. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

It does stray, I have an older yamaha with the same exact trem. I'm gonna do away with that and put in a regular bar mount. It looks just like and OFR. A pic of it will have to wait a bit I tore it all apart for cleaning it was a mess. Her's a link to one for sale. http://www.emma-music.com/boutique/f...=lg_fr&num=151I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

Yes, change the block and put in a regular Floyd type bar. That's what I'm trying to figure out. I don't have a real Foyd to compare to and I don't know the spacing on the 3 tone block screws on one. The bar mount is a piece of cake I just need a few measurements from a real Floyd. If they are the same I will put one that fits an OFR on it and rock out.I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

Thanks stray have a good one.I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

+1 Getting one from him now as a matter of fact. The guy is awesome to work with. If I like how it sounds, I have a funny feeling all of my guitars are getting one.I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.
