Trem Question (I used search)

supertruper1988 · 01-17-2008, 03:54 PM

I have a 98 S body and i'm fairly certain that it had the lo-trs II in it and i want to reassemble it with the OFR or the Floyd Pro but i need to make sure that it is a drop in for the old one.

Also is there any videos or tutorials with a way to this?

Not to my knowledge, but there's a thread over at Jemsite all about trem swaps.

Not sure about the Floyd Pro (not familiar with it) but an OFR will drop into a TRSII route quite comfortably.

does the trs use the same studs or the same stud holes as a OFR

^ yes it does put if your going to buy a new ofr you may aswell put in the new studs.

yeah direct swap

its really easy to do. if you dont want to bother changing the studs, (the ofr studs arent anything special, really) it should add maybe a minute and a half to a string change.
when you take your strings off, pull the springs out of the back. you can then pull the bridge out of the top of the guitar, put the new one in, and replace the springs. string it up and youre good to go
