Original Edge trem on RG-470 body


Hi there

Few months ago i bought a ibanez guitar body (RG-470) and then made custom finish on it. The body looks perfect so it is time to get that guitar finished. So now I wonder, because I have ibanez original edge, if that trem will fit to that body. I already did some routing job in
cavity, but it looks to me like the posts holes don't line up with the trem (I dont have the studs yet but Im going to get the Ibanez Edge Locking studs). And I need your advise is it going to work or no. Or should I go with different trem.

Thanks for reading and advises

The perfect match is a Floyd Rose Pro, the OFR also use to work, but the Edge wont with out a lot of work

I dropped an Edge into my RG470 and the studs lined up fine...

I just had to shave the rout to drop it in.

Same here, Edge does fit with minimal work.

OFR Pro fits with depth routing (making cavity deeper) and a bit sidewards routing (bottom edge of the fine tuners).
