Trem replacement for a Gotoh Floyd Rose?

So I'm rebuilding an old guitar from the ground up. The body previously had a Gotoh Floyd Rose (now in another guitar). I want to get the guitar up and running but I don't really want to spend £140 plus on a Gotoh replacement for a guitar that will probably be 5th in the pecking order at best.

Anyone know of any cheaper alternatives that would be useable?

  • Something of the same quality you’re looking at the OFR or the schaller lockmeister. If happy with something made of chinesium the floyd special, or something off a cheap Jackson type thing?

    middle ground might be the TRS101 which is fairly reasonable

    I replaced Floyd Specials on two of my guitars with Gotohs.  Might work in reverse?
