    Hey everyone! I was changing strings on my RG today when I noticed that I couldn't adjust the action anymore, the screw had stripped. Any remedies? This is a 2002 RG320DXQM with a Lo TRS II trem. Thanks in advance everyone!

    I recently got a 1998 JS100 via eBay with a missing trem arm (the trem is blocked with a Tremolo-no system). The Ibanez part number for said arm is 2CL21B. Are there also 3rd party term arms that will fit this one?

    Hi all, I have an old 1996 RG450DX with a Lo TRS II trem. I am thinking about replacing it with the Gotoh version. I have no experience modifying a guitar so most likely I may get a local guitar tech to do the swap for me since I read it requires rerouting to use the new studs, but I need to...

    Hey everyone, I picked up this beautiful RG about a year ago. There is nothing printed on the back of the headstock, making it really hard for me to identify the model. I've spent hours looking for something similar with no results. It has a Lo-Trs II trem on it. I have no idea what the pickups...

    Yeah, sounds a bit odd but someone wants to switch to a non-fine-tuner fast load system like a ones below. Someone any experience with this ? - post width distance - post compatibility (knives etc in case original post stay in there or thread difference in case new post that match the new trem...

    I know that there are some other threads discussing this, but I was curious if anyone has actually done one of these particular replacements. I want an inexpensive replacement for my worn out TRS Lo-II. I scored an S470 for under $200 that is in otherwise pristine condition. The edges on the...

    Hi, I just bought an old green RGT42 off craigslist. It has a great action and fast neck, but the pickups and tremolo leave much to be desired. I am going to try and replace the Lo TRS II trem with some type of original Floyd, but am unsure of what will fit easiest in my guitar with minimal...

    Searched, did not see this posted: http://lawl.net/gtr/trems Sorry if repost. Didn't really format right so you might as well just click on that link. Text too long, too many images, continued in next post.

    I recently picked up a JS100 for dirt cheap. The guitar is in great shape and I actually really dig playing it. I paid 200$ with a hard-shell case. Of course, the bridge (LO TRS II) sucks ass. I’m considering replacing it but that’s another story. The bridge doesn’t return to the ZERO...

    I've got an oldish mid-range Ibanez RG 320 DXQM. I've replaced the pickups, and now the only thing holding it back is the trem system. Lo-Trs II bridge sucks, worn out long ago, and doesn't keep itself at the zero point. I've been told that an Original Floyd Rose, Gotoh Floyd Rose, or (maybe...

    Hi everyone, I just bought a 2000 Ibanez S470 jb with a lo trs II, I was wondering if I could put Ibanez ZR trem in its place without any body work or body gaps (like basically bolt in)….any help...

    so i want to switch out my lo trs II bridge, but don't wanna spend 170 bucks on an OFR, so i was thinking on a replacement from guitar fetish. they claim to have hardened steel knife edges/baseplates, and come equipped with a brass big block. are these any good? and if not please provide a link...

    K, so this is my first post, and i've looked all over this site but couldn't find a difinitive answer. k, so i was given a 2000 Ibanez JEM555 from my friend because he had no more use to it. He said the only problem with it was the tremolo, after heavy use, it will not stay in tune. So i brought...

    I recently obtained an older s470 qs that came with a lo-trs II trem. I've heard numerous people explaining how horrendous the lo-trs II was so I'm considering an upgrade. I really like the edge bridges but I've heard that aside from routing (which I wouldn't mind doing) that the post spacing is...

    Hi, I've recently bought a 1994 MIK RG470 that has the infamous LO TRS II trem on it. I've read virtually nothing but bad things about the LO TRS II so I was wondering what kind of tuning stability to expect from it? Being totally new to locking trem guitars I have no idea how a poor...
