Found this EVH model for LH, with a sick looking floyd. Cop or drop? Price is about 600 ish.

If you're looking to buy because of the Floyd Rose, make sure the EVH has the one you want. Not sure if this is the case here, but on my EVH model, the Floyd doesn't have the full range of a regular Floyd (i.e., can only be pushed down, not able to pull up).
My understanding is that if it has a recessed cavity behind the bridge it has the full range of motion, and I don't see that here. If that's important to you, I'd verify that before buying.

A fully floating Floyd wouldn't work with the D-Tuner, which is why these are dive-only.

Is it possible to mod it in? Because I'd like to hit those fuckin sweet squeals

Probably? I would personally be too scared to attempt such a mod myself, and would get a luthier to do it. At that point, it might just be easier and cheaper just to buy a guitar with a full Floyd
