Kurt76 Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 Hi to all! I found a good floyd rose tremolo , but at time i´m not lucky. Well, i see in www.universaljems.com sell this products, different types, and the Gotoh Floyd Rose looks good. Locking in some webpage i don´t see some references. Do you know something about the Gotoh Floyd Rose? Reviwes, references, experience, it´s single or double locking? Made from Japan or Korea?. Thanks you to all comment about this Guys.... Bye!! Quote
Hotrock Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 I'm not sure about the Floyd Rose that Gotoh do but I've bought a set of Gotoh hardware (TOM bridge, Tail Piece, Tuners, Knobs, Jack socket plate and Neck plate) and I'm more than happy. The quality seems very good and I'm very happy with what I got for the price. Quote
MikeB Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 yeh, i think gotoh make good products! Quote
Guest AlexVDL Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 The gotoh floyd rose Brian sells are excellent. IMO one of the best floyd out there. Very stable and as sturdy as the OFR (original floyd rose) but much better constructed (better features). No wonder for instance ErnieBall/Musicman and G&L guitars uses them on their high end models Quote
GuitarMaestro Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 Do the Gotoh Floyds have hardened steel inserts for the saddles and knive edges? What material are they made of? And do they sell a 7-string version? Quote
JFC Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 The Ibanez edge and Lopro are made by Gotoh, I think, or? Quote
Guest AlexVDL Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 Do the Gotoh Floyds have hardened steel inserts for the saddles and knive edges? What material are they made of? And do they sell a 7-string version? Nope, the whole baseplate is hardened steel just like the OFR. Impossible to get worn knife edges because it's very hard No 7 string version that I know of Quote
GuitarMaestro Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 Thanks for the info Alex. Does anyone know if Gotoh makes a 7-string Floyd? Quote
Guest Litchfield Custom Gutars Posted January 6, 2004 Report Posted January 6, 2004 i believe the do. Quote
Brian Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 I haven't been able to locate a 7 string Gotoh, I do know Gotoh's are manufactured in Japan though and if they have them out there sooner or later one will show up. Personaly I like the base plate of the Ibanez's because I grew up on them (just for looks) but the case hard steel of the other models seem to last longer with heavy abuse like Alex said. Quote
mullmuzzler Posted January 7, 2004 Report Posted January 7, 2004 So, how much for the Gotoh gadget + shipping to EU, Brian? mullmuzzler | OSSMT Quote
axemannate Posted May 6, 2005 Report Posted May 6, 2005 Would anyone happen to know the radius of the Gotoh trem? (I know this thread is kinda old, i just hate having to add to the billions of threads to search through. Quote
