It's a fun idea, but the implementation leaves a lot to be desired.
I installed it on a Charvel So Cal with a floating Floyd strung with 10-52s in standard tuning. I ran into a few problems that eventually led to me junking it:
- Even fully screwed down (using either the thumb screws or small hex screws that are also supplied) when tension is removed from the strings, the trem will slide along the shaft cause scratches/deformation as well as going out of tune. Definately can't do any sort of lower tuning (at least I couldn't).
- This issue was particularly bad when trying to set the floyd up as dive only. Doing a dive and then quickly letting the trem come to position would always cause slippage and the whole system would go out of tune.
- Over time, the scratches/deformation add up to friction in the system and your floyd won't return to a reliable zero point causing tuning issues
- Heavy trem use (especially pulling notes sharp) will occasionally cause the pin that fits into the trem block to pop out.
- Flutter is not happening with this thing installed (if you're into that).
It's well made, and the company is decent to work with (the tiny allen keys it came with were misshapen and didn't work out of the box, so I emailed them and they sent me a new set with no hassle right after purchasing). But the above issues were just too much of a pain in the ass. It was sold as having a hard tail + a dive only + a regular Floyd and didn't really live up to billing.
If you only use your trem sparingly and lightly, and want to be able to occasionally lock things down to bend one note while pedaling another without pulling it flat it works great. But also know that it'll fail on you if you use it regularly.
