Davis.

Ask for the Schaller Floyd Rose arm assembly.

 

[BloodSolo]

davis have one ??? schaler ??? what is that ?

 

[ShredCow]

Davis has... they have ESP licensed FR arm assembly. Ibanez Edge arm assembly. And schaller.

Schaller is a german company that used to manufactor Original Floyd Roses for Floyd Rose. FR has shifted to some other company now.

The Schaller arm assembly is the tremolo arm with attachment screws etc etc. $20.

. FR has shifted to some other company now.
.

isn't FR is doing FR these days? I thought he bought it back from Fender.

I would take the guitar with you....there are a few types of FR arms/bars. The most common is the screw down collar but there are others. Avoid Japanese parts like Gotoh, Fernandes....they are usually metric and won't fit...unless you have a Japanese metric licensed FR....

 

[ShredCow]

I dunno where FR is doing it nowadays... i did see some pics and a write up on it... anyway, there have been better floyd rose designs out there, and I think FR has a long way to catch up.

With davis, they basically have 2 types of FR screw in arms, the ESP and Schaller. The Schaller is the one that would fit.

It would matter if its metric because the whole arm assembly is purchased, not the arm alone. So you can take out the old arm assembly and install the new one.

unless jap arm assemblies can't fit into an american OFR's arm holder hole?

someone seems to have taken my trem arm and now i cant find it! where can i get a gotoh replacement one? also davis? the schaller?

 

[ShredCow]

You can try GC.

Its similiar to a Gotoh wilkinson's arm, but note.

There are 2 types. 1 arm is a solid piece of metal. 1 has a screw in at the bottom.

Your gotoh can use either one, but its up to you. You should know how your arm system works.

ok so only get one of those. stupid la either someone took it away, or it dropped off the bag dunno lah sian haha

Is there any local techie/luthier who does custom tremolo arms? As in the arm for out of production licensed floyds made by ESP, Jackson etc. Like mine, I can't find any arm that has the proper threading. Seems like that's the downfall of buying 80's guitars without the trem arm
