Very cool video! And yes they stay perfectly in tune!!

This video is exactly what I needed. Thanks!

Thanks for the crackin' upload - and lovin' the 80's black metal Venom T-shirt

Ahahaha spettacolare, sapevo io che avresti usato mortal kombat per qualcosa di folle.. e il risultato è una perla, grande ;)

thank you for the demo, looking at these now :)

thaaaaaaaaaank you! I'm getting a Gotoh510 on my new guitar and was anxious about tuning stability. Now I'm smiling :P

Great trem, it even took a few Mick Mars Dr Feelgood licks , impressive! Now if it could do the intro to kick start my heart.... :)

thanks the info I needed...

I had issues with my trem but I was dropping the tuning super low - drop A, and wasn't staying in tune, was professionally setup for drop a with nut carved, but it wouldnt hold tuning after dive bombs, so I put in a Wilkinson/Gotoh VS-100N Tremolo replacement trem and it is now the most solid in=tune guitar next to my evertune, no hyperbole. Side note my AZ when it was in E Flat tuning, the t1502 stayed in tune 99% of the time, I would only struggle with the hated g string, but it wasn't always out of tune, only after a few full songs my g would be a little flat.

Nice video. in my experience back dive it the real test! Still nice performance with the front dive.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 grandissimooo!

Caffè passaggio fondamentale

AHAHAHAHA no va beh! Sei un cazzo di genio 😂😂😂

The best "non lockable" tremolo I have ever tried was the trem on the PRS SE Standard, that is why I bought it. To be able to tune the guitar easy to different tunings but still be able to use some easy to moderate trem-arm use. On my Squier Classic Vibe 70s that is not doable at all, even at very light use of the tremolo the guitar goes waaaay out of tune, but on the PRS SE Standard I can use it much, muchj more with the guitar still staying in 99% of the tuning. For trem abuse I have got the Jackson SDXMN Adrian Smith signature guitar which has the Floyd Rose lockable trem on it, but to tune that guitar to another, lower tuning is a hassle. It tried a trem system like this on the "Ibanez THBB10 Tim Henson Signature" I think it was the T1502 on that guitar as well, but I could not find any Gotoh branding on it, just said Ibanez but it is probably built by Gotoh. That Tim Henson guitar was not setup at all and it held it's tuning pretty good. I guess this tremolo is one of the best non lockable just like my PRS SE Standard then ? My next guitar will probably be the Ibanez JIVA JR Nita Strauss Signature, I just love those Ibanez S/SA guitars, so thin and light, awesome to play, and that guitar also looks amazing. After you add some Dimarzio pickups on that guitar it is basically the same guitar as the much more expensive JIVA 10 guitar that has her Dimarzio Pandemonium pickups that sounds great for rock - metal and looks awesome on a darker guitar.

Bravo bel video!ma la canzone in sottofondo è tua?Bella!

Complimenti per i video. Che tu sappia questo ponte T1502 è uguale al T510 originario ?

Hello, good video would be great and you would do us a favor to many people if you recorded a video of how you made the adjustments with that gotoh bridge ... I have the same guitar and I get the G and B strings out of tune a lot. The guitar comes with 0.10 of factory ... What did you do? Did you change the strings to another thickness? Did you remove some springs from the back? Is the setting the same as for a guitar with floyd rose?

I just got one of these in mint condish(for 800!) And i puts everything else I have to shame. (Schecter hellraiser hybrid pt, jim root tele, fernandes revolver elite) those are all excellent guitars, but this one is miles ahead in every category. Even construction and QC compared to the MIJ fernandes seems better. The fender too. The tele's MIM but its just as nice as USA fenders imo... i saw in some other reviews that the single coil sounds better than a costom shop strat and once I got mine i think i may agree. I've never had the "this is my desert island guitar" feeling till i got this. Lol assuming that island has power and amps to plug into...

I’ve got two AZ’s. Indonesian HSS and Martin Miller AZ. Both stays in tune no matter the abuse. Key for me is stretching the strings and tuning from below the tune up to pitch. Also when I tune the guitar I Flutter the trem to get it into neutral. Never an issue, but then none of my guitars ever have issues. Apart from setup issues it’s usually user error (apologies, not trying to offend anyone).

I am really thinking about getting one of these?

how about a video on how to \change strings on this guitar?

I recently got the mm1 with t1802 and cannot manage to achieve this tuning stability... even with light tremolo action. I haven’t changed the strings yet so o don’t actually know what’s gonna be. Do you have any advice to get these results?

bel video complimenti. secondo te questo modello può andare bene per fare metal alla opeth o quello più moderno tipo periphery?

Not having as much luck on my AZ2402, feels like I have to tune it every day :( My ibanez Edge guitars basically never require tuning, still though, the AZ is a nice looking, feeling, and sounding guitar. I hate to modify it, but, I think it needs locking saddles.

hahahaha Great video. Can you tell me about the thickness of the neck. I know the rg760 and love the it's thickness.

The "yeah bitch" at the end made my entire day. Thank you.

I’m still in tune!!!! Yeah beach🤘🤣🤣🤪

Can you pull it back as a flyod Rose or Edge trem ❓

Do you have the default Seymour Duncan Hyperion pickups on this or have you changed them? :) Sounds a bit higher output

Did you change the strings one at a time or take them all off?

is the Gotoh T1502 floating like a floyd or it can it be decked like a strat?

I have an AZ and the 1502 stays in tune.

How did you set up this guitar? Because I have the same guitar and its horrible when its about tuning stability...

The solo from 0:22 is from a song? Is it yours? Its amazing

I see why this bridge ended up on the newer Ibanez’s signatures.

How about tuning stability after bending and tremolo pull ups? this is where the nut is making problems...hard picking can also detune some strings

do you recommend this guitar?

Can u pull the trem up for raising the pitch? Or should it be adjusted differently as it’s only means for one way dive bombing?

Mandatory like after hearing “taaaaac”

Hello! I own an Ibanez Prestige AZ 2204. I use 9-42 gauge strings. My tremolo doesn't keep the guitar in tune. Yet, my guitgar has been set up by a pro luthier. I wonder if I have to change the number of springs (3 springs for the moment), the position of those springs and the tilt of the tremolo block (which is slithly up). Any advice for me?

Ciao, ma come lo tieni rispetto alla cavità? Parallelo oppure rialzato?

I'm thinking about getting one.. Are they good for metal?

does it also work like a floyd ? i mean when a string breaks , the rest of the strings gets out of tuned too ?

Everything is fine with that bridge, but when you make a 1 or 2 tone bends without using the tremolo after doing so, your guitar will probably be out of tune.

Is floating tremolo or just dive only tremolo ?

so if this simple tremolo design works why in the world need floyd rose tremolo which many adjustment and locking in the neck

Ciao Giulio ma la chitarra esce già con quel ponte??

Molto simile a una Charvel. Suono aggressivo ma non moderno! Si mantiene sul classic rock, perfetta per il glam/metal anni 80' secondo me. 👌

before 1:01 after 2:11

My az is never in tune :/

can you pull up on the trem?

Goodbye floyd rose bridges

Ma solo a me col tremolo dell'az a volte si scorda solo il si e il mi cantino?

Only thing is the majority of Ibanez AZ Guitars have incredibly bad tuning problems. Slipping locking tuners & poorly cut nuts are the most common issues people are having.

no problems here but i have prestige

The secret is the nut. Not exactly the tremolo.

If I was in the room with that guitar it would go out of tune. Trems hate me.
