It's kind of between this and an OFR. I think I like the backloading strings idea, but the OFR has nostalgic value and is probably better quality.

I say pass. even though it says that its not pot metal, the fine tuners won't be as smooth/functional as on a high quality unit. Those tuners should not be chrome plated. Chrome plated knife edges will get dull and give you trouble and will probably end up flaking off. I've see enough cheap floyds to know to stay away. There's nothing like a real Floyd or Ibanez Edge trem.

They've got a new double locking floyd up there now too but I'm thinking I'll probably stay away and get a Gotoh.
