  • Floyd went up to EVH and asked him to try it out.. Since Eddie was constantly using his Tremolo. He installed the first Floyd Rose WITHOUT the fine tuners on his Bumblebee (Which he buried with Dimebag). I'd say around 79' Eddie first used it. I've read that Eddie was the first to publicize it.. i truly believe that. Kramer later had a contract with Floyd around like 83'. Cheers! -Chez

  • I did in 2012 on a $80 Stratocaster

  • 1980s has made in germany stamp in one line, after that they were stamped with made in germany 2 lines.

  • screw my last few comments i was acting like the other utubers who act like ed built the thing....... 

    Floyd rose used it first......duh

    he put it on his les paul

    he built custom inlays and used his materials to create the locking nut

  • evh used it first

    he first used it in either 75 or 76

    he put it in frankenstein which was his own custom built guitar...

  • evh used it first

  • Wasn't Randy Hansen one of the first Floyd users????

  • @XxJustinXxak Randy Jackson! hahaha

  • @thegermanchannel212 Nope, it was Gary Kahlers on those Gibson Tune-O-Matics because they slapped right on the posts with a small route underneath! Hendrix relied on the old Bigsby tremolo on a Flying V

  • @GearVault I remember they were in adverts together, and Guitar Player put out a special interview book compiling all the greats of HM guitar, going back to Hendrix..even the late Randy Rhoads was in the book. Guitarists themselves don't always know about their own guitars, they leave that to the roadies!
