mullmuzzler Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Are there any European vendors for these trems, and if so, what's the pricing on these? mullmuzzler | OSSMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feylya Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I seem to recall a 7 string being about €225 and that was a really good deal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahelcaya Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I had a really hard time finding them in EU , and quite expensive the Ibanez ones, so I got a 7 string Floyd rose TRS from "guitar parts depot" for something like 170 $ that would be like 110 E (i think averagly). I live in Italy but always buy from US, It's way more convenient in price ( even with the shipping fee ), and way lots more choise of products. I know they look better and probably have better performance level rather than a TRS , but why want to spend more than double ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullmuzzler Posted January 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Yeah, but do you KNOW a vendor in EU that sells these trems? @Mahelcaya: They look way better, but the point is that THEY PERFORM X TIMES BETTER. mullmuzzler | OSSMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGGR Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I have been dealing with same issue. As most others building Ibanez type 7 strings.... I would've liked to use a Ibanez Lo Pro 7 for my project too. Options open are/were: Buy second hand trem thru ebay.com ($50-$100) Buy from official Ibanez dealer in Europe (E225-E250 without toplock, so add E45-50) Buy second hand RG7620 and take trem out of it.... ($200-$300) Or go alternative route and get OFR. The OFR is very similar to the Ibanez Edge trem. At guitarpartsdepot.com they can be had for $170 (E120-130) I have been in limbo about this issue for while. Really didn't wanno go the OFR route.....If Ibanez didn't have such a rediculus pricing structure of their trems, I would have dropped a new Edge Pro trem in the guitar I'm building.......currently I go for the decent acceptable alternative. The OFR. Just makes more sense........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarMaestro Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Most people try to find them on the internet or via this site. It's exactly what I did too first. Then I went into the store of the local Ibanez dealer and asked if they could get me a cosmo black Low Pro 7. They ordered one for me for 225€ which is quite a good price compared to the online sellers. I think every local Ibanez dealer can get the trem for you at this price. Just ask them....

RGGR Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Yep, if you have your mind set on a Lo Pro 7, this is the route to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
