I bought a rg 520 guitar body for a project, knowing that they come with the edge trem. Well after paining it all up and half way through my clear coats. I realize it has been retrofitted with TRS posts. Why oh why would any body in there right mind do that?.
I guess I can't install the best trem in the world..... the edge of course????? I have to goto a floyd?
The guy who sold it and sells Ibanez stuff all the time , you'd think would mention it. B&%$#$#%^

Are you sure it's a 520? I thought there was a 320 QS also, a little later in history.

Also, can't you just replace the inserts, or are they different sizes?

no they are different sizes. I'd have to rip them out and that would not be easy to say the least. He advertised it as a 520.

Yeah, I just don't know why someone would put TRS posts in an RG520QS. Crazy.

FYI: TRS routing is different from Edge routing.

Is one compatible with another? Like would a TRS trem fit in an Edge routed body, or vice versa? Seems the Edge is larger, but I haven't really paid much attention to the TRS trems.

I have tried fitting an Edge to a TRS guitar; No dice! The Edge did not fit the body rout.

yeah I tries my edge in there and it fits. But like I said I pretty sure its 520 which is a edge route.. The jem site says the floyd rose and the trs are interchange able. I might get one those as second alternative to the trs
