Looks even better up close. That's amazing.Never knew he was playing PRSi.
Is that a PS PRS with an Ibanez trem AND a middle pickup!?

That does look like an Edge doesn't it? Do any Floyds have that intonation key like the Edge Zeros do? If not, that sure looks like and Edge Zero to me.Never knew he was playing PRSi.

It is an Edge Zero.

Any small-mid tier artist would just be shooting themselves in the foot. A lot of getting endorsed now is taking advantage of a company's large fan base. Prime example is Kiesel where you get introduced to a huge fan base by being regularly promoted on their socials etc. I can see why they are pulling so many players away from other brands. It comes with a lot of clauses though.
I can think of guys who play small guitar companies like Luca Turilli(Rhapsody) plays guitars from a one man shop that I don't think even builds anymore. Countless albums and world wide tours but he's been playing just them for around 20 years now.
I think Matt Healy is endorsed but plays what he likes. At least on social media he reps a lot of other brands besides his signature guitar.
Always cool to see Edges on non-Ibanez guitars. I'm sure some of you guys have seen this before, but here's my old Kelly—first 7 out of the Jackson Custom Shop (along with a matching Stealth) which had an Edge since there was no such thing as a Floyd 7 at the time.

He paid them...
I don't see why everyone is surprised about the bridge.
It's not like PRS makes a competing design. They don't. They have no stake in Floyd Rose.
Heck, Gibson was putting Floyd Rose trems on Les Pauls when Fender owned Floyd.

I think the inoffensiveness of the EGEN was kind of it's downfall to be honest. Artist signatures get a pretty chunky upcharge, with the EGEN being no exception, and that upcharge usually is justified by some cool, unique feature or finish. The EGEN was just a cool Saber, there wasn't really much about it that was unique aside from the grip.
Probably just the optics of it being a product from a competing guitar company. Makes sense if you think about it for a couple seconds, but yeah, looks a bit weird on the surface.

Exactly this, it just looks weird seeing an Ibanez made trem put into a PRS. The fact that PRS even allowed it is surprising.
They also allowed a Fender body on a PRS neck.

That's badass! That's better than Jackson or Ibanez does on their own. The world is a better place when we just put the parts we want together : ) I love seeing LoPro's and Edges on non Ibanez guitars. I love when people do whatever they want with a guitar.

Holy sh**
I've seen the FR800 from the 2020 lineup and it looks amazing.
I just thought "if only it would come in 7 string"
Turns out IT DOES!

EDIT:
I've just seen that this has already been talked about and that it is US only again T_T
I hate US exclusives with a passion... It's like with the ALT30, i wanted that since it came out about 2 years ago and still no signs of it crossing the pacific ocean.

Ibanez isputting out some nice stuff! This is nice. Of course I have the wish it had no inlay bug but dnag, that is cool. Interesting it has a 1pc neck though. I wonder how the decide on 1, 3, 5pc necks and which models get them. I almost everything about this; controls out of the way a good spot for the kill switch etc. This looks like a great player axe for sure! Even the logo is nice all blacked out too.
