Lo-TRS vs Edge III
Anybody has any inputs on this?
I noticed that the Edge III's are usually put on the Korea/China made RG Tremolos.
I have an RG470 which has the LoTRS and would like to find out how good is the Edge III compared to the LoTRS

Re: Lo-TRS vs Edge III
Given that you treat the system right, it'll last good and remain stable for some couple of years.

I've had my Edge III-
equipped guitar
for over a year, now, and have not had one single problem with it, tuning or otherwise. Stays in, nicely, for me.

Re: Lo-TRS vs Edge III
I was considering the current RG3xx series of guitars and wondering if the Edge III trems are any good. Thanks a lot.

They aren't bad if it's setup properly

Re: Lo-TRS vs Edge III
I always head that Lo-TRS is a piece of junk, whereas Edge III is fairly useable if properly set up.

i have a lo-trs II from 2002, and it isn't that bad. the original lo-TRS was actually fairly nice, whereas the II model had worse knife edges and tended to deteriorate over time. if treated well, they're a horse-a-piece, and can be great when properly setup
