8. They sound scary

I tried a guitar with a Floyd Rose years ago, not for me. My friend had a MIJ Strat for sale cheap and it had a bottom of the line Kahler with a Schecter locking nut. Interesting production history with that guitar. Not a big fan of the 'ol vibrato bar on guitars but this thing was ALWAYS in tune. Nowadays I just use old school Fender style Vibrato bridges. Hard to find but you might find a nice used guitar with a Kahler on it.

Yeah, I'm that guy.

You should be able to lock it. Defeats the purpose of a tremolo though.	Beakybird	Nov 2020	#2
