edge III is a reliable unit. those who dislike it just find the unit a bit stiff, compared to initial Edge/ Lo-Pro Edge vibrato. the Edge III is still a reliable system which returns notes to pitch.

Edge II Pro vs Edge III: design differences which are mainly physical. conceptually, they are very similar.

Wizard II- Japan vs Korea
FYI there are no more jap Wizard II in production, the current ones are all korean. the main differences are (korean measurements on the left):

*thicker depth @ 1st fret: 19mm vs 18mm
*thicker depth @ 12th fret: 21mm vs 20.5mm
*more curved radius: 400mm vs 430mm

+ edge III need to cut off ball end, where as edge pro ii dun need

mi friend using the edge iii also now complaining that the arm doesn't stay in the hole as well as it used to, as there is no (u noe ur cable tip shape?) shape, unlike the edge's arm

and the rg350's neck compared to the rg450s neck feels much more chunkier, well personal opinion

the tip of the whammy bar barely affects the fit, what ensures te tightness are the bushings which do get worn out but are replaceable.

vibrato bar bushings.

 

[pooo]

Where can we find and get the replacements for these bushings?
