New tremolo for jackson?

I have Jackson DXMG and i want to change licensed floyd rose in it with original floyd rose. Current tremolo is a copy of the Floyd Rose Pro.

1.Which tremolo is better for my guitar: "Floyd Rose Original" or "Floyd Rose Pro",
and which tremolo is better generally?

2.What is the benefit of putting original floyd rose instead licensed one?

3.Average price of new original FR tremolo?

Jackson liscensed trems are actually pretty good...if they are the pro ones.....most of the time originals won't fit in liscensed trems cavities....I dunno what to tell you...My RR3 has a lliscensed trem, and I love it.

I heard that licensed floyd roses are shit, but i have nothing to compare mine to.
Mine stays in tune, but it's made of lesser quality molten metal, i think. I have broken one of screws while i was tightening the strings in. I tried to find a replacement screw but the guy in the shop told me that it's probably easier to find an original floyd rose tremolo than a part for licensed one

Ah, well as far as broken parts...I dunno.

my friend has a Schecter with an OFR....I actually like my Jackson trem...it's not as bulky and stays in tune 100 percent....but I am really good at setting up the thing. so that's the comparison I'm going off of....It's gotten to the point that I really don't want an OFR unless it's a low-profile. I would honestly take a Jackson liscensed trem over the normal OFR's.



But it all comes down to preference...
