Replacing a licensed Floyd with an OFR...
I just want to know what this would involve. The ONLY things I would have to do are replace the pivot screws and the entire bridgepiece, right? The springs and locking nut I figure are completely optional.
Is any other sort of work required to get an OFR to work on a licensed trem guitar(besides setting it up, which I'm pretty good at now)? Just for your info, the licensed trem being replaced is a Jackson JT580 bridge, the stock floyd bridge on many lower end models. I just want to make sure I can do the replacement myself because it seems dead simple.
Oh yeah by the way, does anyone know of any good cleaning solutions or oils specifically made for cleaning the parts of a Floyd bridge? I know this thing called GHS string saver, it's a white ceramic frictionless paste specifically for use at the nut to prevent strings from getting caught and breaking, and can also be used at the saddle(and I believe the pivot joints as well but I won't try it til I'm sure). I just use Q-tips or a compressed air can to clean my saddles and shit.
