For a while now I've had a banged-up Ibanez RG220B sitting around the house, that I picked up at Music-Go-Round because I liked the idea of having a project. It didn't have a trem arm, and the edges on trem (an Ibanez-made Floyd Rose) were worn enough to be rounded.
Now, thanks to a new Floyd Rose from GuitarFetish.com, a bit of elbow grease, and a dremel, it has a new trem. I had to widen the cavity slightly, but it seems to feel good installed and stays in tune very well. Best of all, I now have some confidence for bigger projects.
