Hey all,
I bought a used Ibanez EX series (by accident because of mislabeling) but really like it. The guitar is about 30 years old and built in 1989 and I believe has all of the original hardware. My question is regarding the tremolo system. I popped off the bottom plate today and while the springs even look original, the tremolo seems to be in disrepair. Only two springs came with the instrument and the bottom of the tremolo has cracking. I know the original tremolo was the TRS101 and although I found one on reverb it is not quite the same. It has a Floyd Rose Lic Tremolo system and says something about an R2 nut. Would this work as a replacement? Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
