Who Manufactures the New Floyd's?

[AnotherNoob]

I have a 2012 Y2D with a stamped Musicman Floyd, just curious as to who manufactures them since I always assumed Gotoh but I just read something stating that that's not the case with the newer ones. I really love the design of it, very comfortable and elegant looking as well. Does anyone know?

Bump, I'm really surprised this isn't disclosed somewhere.

One would assume its the same place that manufactures the MM Vintage Trem and the JP Trem.

It's "top secret"!!

Haha, that's lame. I guess it's produced in house then?

I doubt it, though I don't know who makes them either.

Gah, I'm so curious! Haha. The reason I went with MM for a Floyd was cause I trusted that they use the best hardware and I wouldn't have tuning issues. It's been good except that the blocks on the nut have not some grooves and that happened pretty fast, besides that stability is good. I've never owned an OFR, Edge, Gotoh or anything like that so I have nothing to compare it to.

Patience my friend, for one day we shall all know, but until that day be at peace with thyself.

They've since changed to a different model of Floyd, which is the one in question.

You're right..didn't read the question carefully.

Pretty similar except the Music Man one doesn't have anything sticking out where the arm goes in. Even then, they could be designed similar but manufactured totally different.

that´s the old floyd they used in the past, i guess.
