You can see via pics on the Ibanez forum you got all your info from. I've never seen anyone try to replace an EP with an OE or LPE as the routing required seems more trouble than it's worth. They would require a guitar with a higher pitched tone. However, heavy metal guitarists may not like this sound. The Jem Jr is great for playing country, blues and traditional rock and even Christmas songs. I did however ditch the back panel as the block was too big, but that just made setting up easier for me. The sound the Jem Jr produces is slightly richer than other guitars with higher quality pickups including the more expensive Ibanez Jem 7V. I did this on my Xiphos and chose the routing path, my tech did a fantastic job and can't tell at all. There is some routing required: the back screws may be too long and brass block may be too tall on factory units for the Edge III/Pro cavity, but you can always get shorter ones on the Gotoh website. A few cool byproducts that come with this: locking studs, brass sustain block, awesome torque, knife edge durability that lasts as long as an OFR, cheaper than OFR. It's not exactly an OE/LPE but then again Gotoh did make the original Edge units.

You get the feel of the original/lo pro Edge but with the lower profile of the Edge Pro. Keep the Edge Pro and give it a locking stud mod. If you want to keep the Ibanez authentication look, there are a few options to take: Now an OFR is no problem at all as I love Floyds, but I am after an Ibanez look to this guitar so would prefer an if possible to fit an Original Edge.īasically the Edge III and Edge Pro routes are exactly the same.

I have an RG body with the trem cavity routed for an Edge Pro (Cavity was CNC'd ala an RG1570) but I would prefer to add a full locking trem. IBANEZ EDGE-PRO/EDGE-PRO II cavity will ONLY take an OFR. So my question is regarding the statement in Green:

TRS/LoTRS/LoTRS-II cavities are not covered as ANY Floyd licensed trem (except maybe Kahler Floyds) can be easily installed in those, no works needed.

Thought that this would be useful plus I actually wanna check with anyone out there that one of the facts is correct.

Found this on the Ibanez Forums, did check there was nothing like this already that I could find on here, so if I missed it sorry to repost (assumed this is the right section too, if not MODS: please move it, thank you)
