  • Something like a JE1200? Also best cheap floyd copy?

    I can only find one je1200 supplier on ebay (im in aus) so i wanna see what else I can get locally.

    Does EMG make anything similar? Its for my Model 6 with stock J200's and a J90c.


    Also whats the next best thing after an Original Floyd? I wanna see my options in case it gets too pricey for me


    This is the year i finally finish modifying my 6!

    For cheaper floyd copies, I like the Jackson JT580LP or Takeuchi TRS101. I have a DK2 with the JT580LP, and I find it stays in tune just fine. I had a Takeushi in a parts mutt, and only replaced it because it doesn't use the same type of tremolo arm as the DK2 (it uses a screw in tyope like a vintage Fender trem). Both have a different shape baseplate to an original floyd. I don't know if that will be an issue on youyr guitar.

    I plan on modifying the Takeuchi to take a floyd standard arm and putting it back in the mut. Not particularly happy with the JT580 (non-LP) version I put in.

        Also you could try Alexi Laiho pickup set it comes with booster, maybe that can be installed with other pickups...
