Is this floyd rose 7 legit?

if you look at the string lock screws they're hollow and don't have grooves for an allan wrench. what kind of tool would you use with those?

That's not a genuine floyd. It's a "licensed" model.

It's not an Original Floyd Rose. And it's a single-locking bridge, meaning you thread the string through the back of the screw lock tubes and it only locks at the nut.

Yeah, stay away from this thing, it's a piece of shit.

Unfortunately, you're going to either be stuck with a piece of junk (like the one you listed), or a gold trem.

No one has chrome or black bridges in stock, and haven't for some time. Rumors as to what is going on with Floyd Rose have run pretty rampant, but the net result is the same: they're not shipping any new bridges right now.
