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. |

Yeah, crazy eh? FYI: TRS routing is different from Edge routing. Steve |

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. Steve |

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 |
