All user reviews for the Schaller Tremolo

I got this on my used 1990 Jackson Rhoads Pro and haven't had any problems with it. For a 22 year old bridge it's holding up VERY well. The knife edges look brand new and there's no rust anywhere, without me just saying it there'd be no way of knowing it's 22 years old. Just like the original these things are great. I can dive bomb, squeal, and flutter and have the bridge come perfectly back in tune every time. The deal with the knife edges is that if they’re softer metal then over time they get worn down from pivoting on them. Once it’s not sharp anymore the bridge can’t return to “zero” thus keeping it in tune. Bending and using the bar makes the guitar go out of tune. Having hardened steel knife edges, like the Original, Schaller, and Gotoh, keep them sharp for much longer. Like this, it’s been 22 years and still sharp. Most licensed ones can go bad even within the first year.
These Schallers are a bit more expensive than the original so that's my only complaint, I'd rather spend less and have the original.
One complaint I've heard is that these are made out of zinc (like cheaper licensed ones) but have hardened steel knife inserts. The problem with them being a softer metal is that when intonating the bridge when you tighten the intonation set screws they can sometimes strip and become useless. No fix for it and AFAIK the only option is a new bridge. Schaller has since fixed the problem with inserts for each screw but on older ones it was a problem. Again I haven't witnessed this so I can't comment. Most Schaller floyd roses don’t say Schaller on them, they’re normally licensed from a guitar company such as Washburn, Jackson, Gibson… and has their name imprinted on the bridge instead. They are still the same bridge, just with a different name.

Mounted on guitar luthier for 2 years, at earlier used in place of jackson floyd on my DK2.


Accurate and robust, this will be the two words to choose first.


-No easier or harder to settle a pink original in revenche more precise.

-Much more resistant to wear than the Gotoh (edge ​​pro & Related) as used for 4 years, mine has no wear marks, my Gotoh chrome has lost his place in the hand rests or less 2 years: (.
With adjustable wear-free power cords knives.
The not referred does not eat up the allen wrench hole remains perfectly hexagonal, even forcing it.


-Screws of adjustment for height was not very late for a very precise adjustment (unlike the bulk of copies is not Jackson and ESP)

Can replace a floyd-jackson, esp, ibanez, without any modification of violin, surely the other but I do not advance on this point.

-The pack includes floyd, springs, stop bar, basically the kit is complete.

The only downside is that there is not "black chrome or cosmo black"




Floyds of all tested, this one remains my favorite because of its robustness and back are a perfect balance without any default, the view of most of the paint friction is far superior to competitors.

It just does not deserve 10/10 is not available because in many colors which for me have been a plus.

I use the vibrato for 8 years now. It SERIES silent in the Lag Rockline Avenue.

TRS is a good vibrato: it can grind in every way and no need to connect the guitar then (I give my guitar every 6 months ... and I chipotte!! ).
When I change my strings (keeping the same drawing), I change each other APRS which allows me to not have to connect all the strings: one string exchange r give!

This level of accuracy is far from the many other vibrato that I used in the past. And even after 8 years of use, still prcis, no Repair Tool ...

Overall, I think that vibrato is really a good choice but may be less enjoyable than the last Ibanez vibrato ... whatever ...

Super floyd irrprochable a quality ... Brand Schaller Floyd Rose Original and fabiquant has succeeded in its own CRER MODEL and the quality is exactly the same as an ORF. The vibrato is really good and it tudi my opinion the best licensed floyd, I criticized the licensed floyd usually does by no means the following:
Some lightweight-dsacordent following the return to equilibrium after having shot and pushed the rod. Schaller for the note back to perfection in both directions.
-The spring force is often poorly dimentionn and the mass, the Schaller, provided the springs are in perfect agreement with the relatively large mass of floyd (good), the effects of vibrations like "gargle" out extremely well and the last or they are on other floyd, as soon dispelled.
Some floyd-have mdicre quality of fasteners or the location unsage cl Hallen DIMENSIONS mals eventually wear to the tightening of the strings hard, the quality of the Schaller screw is again perfect, the holes are deep and cl Hallen prcis trs, what j'aprcie.
-The stems of certain licensed floyd fall all alone or are too srrs and can not find the right middle, some have more some a little game on the Schaller, stem cell falls in hole it is beautiful (to say it out means a "pop" when it's a contact on mtal mtal). Thurs so totally void, and the tightening of the stem is very well because you can give tudi stem hardness that we want and it does not dssere playing.
The fine-tunners of Shaller are prcis.

I short a time to talk about it but I sums it by QUALITY, everything is perfectly milimtr.
I have two of these pink floyd 2 years and I am delighted, over the ratio quality price is good because for the trs equivalent ORF is much cheaper (175 in chrome and a little black against the more than 220 FRO).
This is the best with the existing Floyd Rose original MRIT so that a 10.
