Do note that the whammy bridge in UNO's Warzone 2 is a Floyd Rose Original model, the same model featured in many high end instruments. Before I brought the WZ2 home yesterday, I managed to have a go at it; actually Mike asked me to give it a good workout & I obliged. It was fantastic in terms of response- smooth operations as expected from this tried & tested brand name product. More importantly, Mike came up to me & clipped a tuner at the WZ2's headstock to check post-abuse tuning & it was spot-on.

clean route work..like.
do FR-original and FR-special have same architecture especially those springs system at the back?
i think difference is only the material used,. FR special has much cheaper metal, but only slight diff in tone i guess..
bro- the springs at the rear cavity feature the same attachments. we observe this even for non-FR bridges.
FR Original- top tier version, made in Germany
FR 1000- a tier lower than the FRO but not made in Germany. also, it's not available off the shelf, specially manufactured (OEM) for certain brand name instruments (some Edwards guitars are equipped with the FR 1000). same materials used, same grade, same processes, just not done in Germany
FR special- a tier lower than the FR 1000, materials used are different, ditto processes but all approved by the FR company
so that's mean FRO, FR1k and FRS all have same shape, design and dimension?
yes, sir! *salute*
+points with the black hardware,.
i wish they have white WZ2, black hardware, black pups with black hex pole screws. .
should i repaint if i ever get a WZ2?
im looking at Emil Werstler's Prs, charcoal with cherry burst.. drooll..
the floyd rose special uses zinc saddles the bloc is also made out of zinc that's the only difference i could spot i don't know maybe if you change the saddles and the bloc it will be comparable to the FR1000.
i found this comparison between the Original Floyd Rose(mig)and the Floyd Rose FR1000(mik)
