My friend owns an Ibanez RG470 whose bridge began making problems.
It's the screws which tighten the string clamp blocks, they can't tighten properly anymore, instead they just rotate within the groove.
The material is apparently not the best around, so he started investigating what FR bridge to buy for replacement...
I've heard terrific things about Schaller's licensed FR bridges (but there were some complaints on Harmony Central as well) and even better about Kahler's Steeler FR. Schaller is available on www.stewmac.com, but I don't know if that Kahler is available anywhere, at least I couldn't find it...
OTOH, if Schallers are factory fitted on Caparisons, I doubt they're not outstanding.
Since I have no experience with any of these bridges, I need your opinions and recommendations... Thanks!
