Hi!
My friend have Ibanez RG with new Edge Pro tremolo. He asked mi tu setup it his guitar, because it is his first guitar with FR. I have Lo Pro Edge, and i don't know what it is good angle of edge pro. If somebody acn do something like this: http://www.jemsite.com/tech/t_1setup.htm#step1

Generally speaking, as mentioned on the site, the trem angle should be neutral, regardless of type of trem, I suppose.

Adam,
the Edge Pro II (as the Edge Pro), should be set parallel to the top surface of the guitar.
better: the top surface of the Edge Pro II' baseplate should be set parallel to the top surface of the guitar.

Incorrect, the angles on the EP cause many optical illusions. Only the knife should be used to set the trem angle. That said, I don't know if you can even see the knife on the EPII.

the outer top edge of the EP' baseplate is perfectly parallel to the knife, then it's good as a reference.
