Which bridge is better?

not aware if there's an original Edge- who copied it? 8-)

in terms of tuning reliability, both are recommended units.
 
opps, didnt know what i was typing, i"ll change it...which one is more likely to fit an rg better?

Im also planning to change the pickups to the dimarzio paf pro(neck) and super distortion(bridge).But i have had reconmendations to just buy a whole new guitar...im looking for more sustain and that paul gilbert kinda sound... i have a rgr320ex btw...

cool, the last time i played that guitar, the Edge III bridge wasn't a problem at all.

the signature Gilbert tone is also how he propel his drive (it's the Marshall VM talking of late...), not just about the guitar/ pickups per se.
 
ok...i may consider not changing the bridge now... but the reason i wanted to change it in the first place was because that it felt stiff and did not return to proper tuning after using it for a while... as for pickups...how does the PAF-pro do in bridge position? does it add alot of distortion?

Why do you play around with it before wasting your $$$ on pickups, which only affects a very small portion of the tone? Maybe you should think of changing your amp 1st.
 
the current amp that i use now is a small marshall MG15CDR sometimes with a digitech df-7 distortion pedal...but if i were to get an amp(highly unlikely), my budget would be about 300...

if you want a pickup which adds to distortion, you'd be better off with higher output pickups which breaks up easily at lower volume levels.

however, lower/ medium output pickups does distortion just as well, it's more about the amp at work...
 
Is the original floyd rose tremmolo system better than the edge? .

No.
The edge is better - solely based in terms of quality of make, it trashes the OFR.

If its sound - then its preference.

If you want the best of quality and sound and price? Gotoh has the best one on the market now.

Yeap, thats right.

Threadstarter, if you want to get better performance from the EIII, then you could DIY carefully. Sharpen the knife edges on the EIII.

You could spend a little and get some better trem posts.
 
lo pro edge or lo pro trs? its a huge diff between the 2. i wud recommend the gotoh if u really wanna change ur bridge
