Although the design of the trem is excellent, the metals Ibanez have been using since 2001 have been awful and wear out within a couple of years.
I needed a replacement trem for my Jem because all the intonation bolt heads were rounding and could no longer be adjusted. The original whammy bar that came with the guitar snapped - I have no confidence the replacement bar provided with this pack will last any longer.
It's also worth noting, this pack did NOT include the nut and locking pieces, this had to be ordered and ended up costing a further ¤70.
Many of you will know, most tuning stability is lost at the locking nut due to weak metal allowing the strings to slip and slowly saw grooves in the pieces designed to vice the string in place.
So you can imagine my frustration when my Jem started losing tuning stability after replacing the entire tremolo and locking nut.
My 1991 Ibanez does not suffer this problem at all, all the hardware is stock and the guitar stays in tune perfectly - made back in the days when Ibanez made their trems out of proper steel!
