Why would a guy named Floyd Rose post a photo that proves Floyd Roses are out of style?

How about someone that's in style?

Jake Bowen of Periphery with his signature Ibanez JBM100. It has an Ibanez Lo-Pro Edge, which is like a Floyd Rose on steroids.

Apparently Rambo is a cork sniffing troll who likes to make uneducated opinions on what he deems to be quality just because he has a lot of money and no talent whatsoever. This link below is another sign of small dick syndrome which Sylvester suffers at the moment.;)

Rambo needs to get a life FFS!:mad:

That's why I recognized his contribution as hollow, rendering his opinion useless.

Remember-- Idiots have opinions too-- so, consider the source, before taking someone's opinion to heart. Life's too short, to waste time with trolls just looking to stir controversy.

I don't know why you seem to hate all of the great 60's guitar tones, all of the best sounding Marshalls were made in the 60's !!!!

In your opinion that is. My favourites come from a 2205 or a Silver Jub.

I love floyds and I'll have one in my new superstrat. I've never had a pair of spandex nor hav I had leather-pants. But I grew up with and love the "big hair"-genre. I mean, what's not to like? Musicians that acutally could play. EVH, Andy Timmons, Paul Gilbert, Yngwie, John Norum, Adrian Vandenberg, Vivian Campbell, Vai, JK Northrup. The list goes on...

Oh, I forgot! How the hell can you (EL34) say that floyd users are 80's spandex-wearing losers?

Alex Lifeson & Rush has NEVER been a part of that genre. Dimebag was a part of it for a short period before they made it with Pantera. And his whole sound was based on a fr.

Floyds as a fashion accessory simply to look cool on stage?? Probably out of fashion and should be (along with spandex).

Floyds as an awesome tool for creating different sounds and tuning stability? No way! Floyds rock!
