Hey man, whatever you get, you can put a Tremol-No on it (if it's got a Floyd type trem), and lock your action in where it's at, and drop tune. The deep C feature allows you to still use your trem for dive bombs. I have one and LOVE it.

I don't know where you can buy one now, AllParts don't sell them anymore. Maybe you can contact the company and ask them.

Edit: I found the URL for the page on AllPart's website, I just visited the forum on the Tremol_no website. Here it is:

Now thats a cool product I have been staying away from the tremolo's because of different reasons but that gizmo's just might make me go out and get a new axe and see lol. My fender has a trem on it but I butted it all the way down so it will pop back into tune easier or well stay in tune longer it is not a floating one though.

Yeah, they're really good if your a string breaker(guilty).

Think the OP bailed...

But I agree with Ninja, if you like the locking system.

I use to be a floating tremolo guy, but a few years ago I jumped ship to the good ol Les Paul.

I'm seriously digging the Kahlers now too. There's not as much routing out of the wood for these, therefore helping in the tone and sustain department. Plus I think there a little easier to adjust or lock down when you want to drop tune yer axe. The one I was looking at anyways, had a screw/knob you turn to lock the vibrato in place, or adjust it's tension. Not the "bar" it self, but the vibrato system completly. Did I make much sense?
