Anyone knows where to get parts for RG1527?

[AaronSoFat]

Hey everyone. title is pretty self explanatory. Anyone knows where to get the 7 string floyd rose bridge and locking nuts for my RG1527? freakin rusty can't even change strings properly. ahah

hmmm, I cant think of anywhere locally that you can get a replacement but another alternative is ordering online, try http://www.wdmusic.com/ or http://www.allparts.com/. Otherwise, you could try guitar repair shops, you'll never know what they have lying around their workshops.

there are some Ibanez Edge/ ZR bridges sold here (7-string units included):

hmmm anyone knows what bridge the old 1527 uses though? LOL. i suppose it'd be around like 300 bucks total with installation eh?

Google's a wonderful tool, maybe you should try it someday.

it's the Edge Pro 7 if it looks like the one below. no installation, just the parts.

recommendations for the best place to install? tried guitar connection, guitar workshop, zen guitarworkz before... all weren't really satisfactory though... expensive plus their set up wasn't all that good.. bah better than most. anyone else can profess satisfaction in another place? willing to try and willing to pay. so. yah.

hmm if the set up wasn't satisfactory, shouldn't you let the tech know? Everyone has different preferences when it comes to a guitar setup (guitar action, neck relief etc)

Edge Pro 7? get it from www.ibanezrules.com . Shipping is expensive so it's best you bring in more stuff while you are shopping for a bridge.

evil bay is not a bad choice too. you might get some good deals.

...worked at swee lee before..no?

yes, briefly.

 

[relinquish69]

wow, they brought in parts for the Edge III? good move.

I agree with you on this bro. Edge III needs lots of replacement parts.

 

[subversion]

IMO- if can help it, avoid Edge III...

 

[AaronSoFat]

wow... 300 bucks US just for the bridge. nice. god damn 7 string

 

[MadWerewolfBoy]

eh, zhng your guitar a bit and replace it with a stainless steel 7 string original floyd! no more rust problems!

 

[AaronSoFat]

lol doesn't go with the guitar la. like might as well put gold one there. haha. now it takes me 2 hours to change strings cos the stupid screw cannot turn liao.

if it's not too much trouble on your part, maybe you can take a pic of the situation- it might not necessitate the replacement of the entire unit.
