I just scored myself a new Gotoh GE1996T Floyd Rose Trem for my Hot Rod Strat, I ordered it a fortnight ago and just picked it up from Sounds Of Music today, I also ordered a couple of Eagle Locking Nuts with it, I did a preliminary test fit of the bridge in the body routing and it seems to fit fine, even the new pivot posts fitted in the existing threaded bushings so I didn't have to take the existing ones out, I can use the new ones as spares if I need to at a later stage, the Locking Nut I've chosen to use needs some work to get it to fit though, but hopefully i will be able to get the Hot Rod Strat up and running again, here's a pic of the new Gotoh Floyd hardware, apparently these are supposed to be pretty good, even better than an original Floyd Rose, anyway:
These Gotoh Irem Units look like they would be a good fit for Pit Bull Guitars that feature a Floyd Rose style trem, like the SV-1.
