so LFR's aren't made by a specific company, they can be made by different companies?

Yeah. It's a license people buy to be able to make them. Obviously not the specific FR. Hence why it's a 'Licensed Under Floyd Rose Patents' bridge.


so wouldn't saying "LFR's are cr@p" be a generalization? i would think some might be terrible, which is why people hate them, and then others are great?


When people talk of LFRs, they normally talk of cr@p FRs.

The good FRs are recognisable by name - And thus, you don't call them LFRs, such as the Edge trems, the ZR Trems, and the Vigier trems with the Ball Bearings which are superb.

those are all licensed floyds? i see... so it basically is true that, if its called an LFR, its gonna be cr@p.
