  1. Tech: Setup, Repairs and Mods
    Hi everyone. I have an Ibanez RG7620 with an Edge Lo Pro bridge. It's a great trem, but unfortunately it's seen some wear over its 26 year lifespan and the return to pitch leaves a little bit to be desired. It's not terrible--I can set it up to return within about 4 cents flat after dives, but...

    Hi everyone, I still don't get too used to my RG550, even though I replaced the original v7/v8 pickups with a Dimarzio set, still can't find the sound/tone I really like. Besides that, in order to improve sustain, or tone, do you think edge tremolo worth replacing the mass/block? I was thinking...

    This has been driving me crazy. Beautiful guitar. Pro set up. When using the whammy (or sometimes just doing big bends) some strings go flat. Usually the D and G and B and low E. Not always all at the same time. The bridge is not forward or backward. Straight parallel with body. Locking nut...

    Hello all, I am interested in replacing the lo-pro edge in my JEM7V SBL with an original edge so I can use a Tone Vise pitch shifter, and I had a few questions. I know the 2010 and after Edges have several small but notable differences from the 2002 and earlier Edges. Is there any reason for me...

    Hey all, I've been sick of wearing the finishes on my Power Cosmo edge bridges and pickup rings despite wiping it all down after playing where possible (I think I've been through 8-10 sets of PC pickup rings for my RG570 over the years), and with a recent arrival of a RG5230L which has the Low...

    Hi everyone, My guitar is 20 years old and during all these years it has been used quite a lot. It's time to change the bridge because it has problems with keeping the tune after using a whammy bar. Knives were sharpened but there are still few more parts to change and they're not easily...

    Hi! I been trying to get my tremolo parallel to the guitar body, but it seems impossible. I have pulled the sprind adjustment knob as far as possible. What else can I do?

    Does all saddle should to has the same height at a Edge Trem or they has its own? I just disassembled it and didn't put attention in to the order of them. It seems that B and G strings are lowered. Thank you in advance guys.

    I have an RG570 body from Japan but no trem on it. Can I install a floyd instead? Is there another edge model that would fit it that's just as good as the original edge trem? cheers

    Took me years to acquire these boys but I finally decided they need to be played and go to a good home. Both guitars are in good condition aside from few nicks in the body from putting it in guitar stand. Both necks are blemish, crack, damage free. Both are setup with low action, straight neck...

    I recently got a RG370AHMZ in Silver Wave Black. (Which is a very sexy guitar by the way.) I love it, but my only two problems are; 1. I can't lower the middle pickup very far, which both causes it to get in the way and reduces the sound options. 2. When palm muting, I end up pushing the edge...

    HI all, I just received a new Carbon trem arm from Rich and learned the bushings are bigger now on the new trem arms. It is for my JS2400, but is tight fitting almost can't get the arm in. It ried the arm from my JS2450 and it fits fine. Also the new trem arm is tight on my 2450. Any...

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could give me tips on restringing my Ibanez RGR652AHB that has an Edge trem bridge. I have successfully done so in the past, but it was always a painful, trial and error process. I'm pretty busy with school right now and so the last thing I want is to go down...
