Man, I really wish I could find a used Jazzmaster on Craig's List or something.

One of the many, yeah. Which albums do they play them on, do you know? I've only got their self-titled from '05.
I do know for a fact that Ted Leo has used his Sheraton (plural?) on numerous occasions, as did one John Lee Hooker. The thing that most appeals to me, though, is the fact that you can get warm, controllable feedback without having to blow out your windows.

I feel like the PRS trem is the next best thing, but there's no other trem system that lets you do horrible, horrible things to your guitar like a Floyd. It has to be a well-made version though, preferably an actual Floyd Rose and not a "licensed" version- although I've heard good things about Ibanez's newer FR-style bridges.
I'm considering getting an Ibanez 7-string* sometime soon (probably the RG Prestige model) so I guess we'll see.
*I have a thing for owning guitars that used to be "cool" but are currently considered way gauche- I had a Jackson soloist back before all the new-generation metal bands re-popularized the brand. I feel like Ibanez, particularly their 7-strings, are post-hype (and more importantly post-shitty-bands-that-endorse-them) so they're probably a good buy nowadays.
Also that new 8-string guitar they're making is RIDICULOUS. You gotta admire any company willing to put THAT friggin' thing on the market.

As for absolute abuse, a Kahler bridge works really well too. Kerry King swears by them...
Say what you will about the man's lead playing, but if it can stand up to his use I'm sure it can stand up to anything.
Oh, and if you're an eBayer, try and find an RG7620 or S7420. You'll thank me later.

And now for no apparent Reason, My 7-string:
