wolfcoast Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Has anyone ever ordered one of these tremolos? I'm wondering what the quality is like. http://store.guitarfetish.com/blflroflotrs.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickguard Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 I can't speak about the quality of this piece. I've bought other parts from Guitarfetish, all is of adequate quality and definitely matches the price point. But the problem with buying cheap parts is you're always going to wonder about whether you should have bought the real thing. For something as crucial as a bridge, it might be wiser to pay the extra price to have some guarantee of quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOBeirne Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 I've heard bad things about cheap FR's, but I dunno how much of a difference there actually is between a cheap one and a real one. I'd get some more opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marksound Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Over on another forum, Jay said, "You'd be VERY VERY surprised where many of the parts come from in a typical $80 humbucker, just as you'd be surprised at the amount of Chinese and Korean lettering on those incoming parts boxes in Corona California...

Gorecki Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Has anyone ever ordered one of these tremolos? I'm wondering what the quality is like. http://store.guitarfetish.com/blflroflotrs.html It's a Mighty Mite bridge if that's of any help, though tempted to pick one up I haven't. I've bought from guitarfetish a few times without issue. Here's a link to MM's Floyds. http://www.mightymite.com/bridges/floyd/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signguy Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I've been looking at those too. Surely someone here has picked one of those up and has some experience with them. I have heard in the past that they seem to wear pretty quick at the pivot point, causing headaches... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
