I have a black one (brand new) if you want it.....PM me if interested

The Edge Pro is made in Japan and the Edge Pro 2 is made in Korea
They are of a similar design - though I think the Japanese one is nicer
the Jap one is not available in black though - only in satin cosmo (gun metal)

so would you say the Ibanez edge is supperior to an OFR?

And where could i get hold of either of these...the ibaez's seem impossible to find!

dave_mc · « **Reply #11 on:** March 23, 2006, 08:51:21 PM »

^ok, having not put them head to head, but from all i hear, it's at least as good as an OFR. (i've tried both trems, just not head to head. They're both great, basically)

But 90% of that is preference with the feel of the trem, etc.

If you want an ibanez edge, you can get an ibanez dealer to order one for you, I think.

Or, a handier way is to get a Gotoh trem on wdmusic. The good one is £110 for the non-low-profile version. Gotoh made the edges, afaik, so it's similar: http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/shop/products.php?category=207&product=1131

The locking nut is an extra £20, though, but that's still £15 cheaper than the cheapest I could get an OFR for.

I WOULD PREFER AN OFR MYSELF
But the original Edge and Lo Pro Edge are really good
The Jap Edge Pro seems v good too and the Gotoh one is rather good

Not so hot on the Korean one, or the TRS or Lo-TRS
there are copies of the Gotoh that are not as good as the original as well - so watch out.

We keep a lot of these in stock or can get them, so we have tried a few....

Absolutely. I thought the Lo Pro on my Jem was an excellent bridge, really senstitive, and not as clunky as an OFR. (Check out the mellow instrumental in Off Topic and you can hear the trem work on the Lo Pro)

For me, though, it's gotta be an OFR. Purely personal preference, but I like it.
