If I'm correct... may not be... Floyd Rose presented his patent pending design for a tremolo to many professional guitarists.... Very few found any interest in the need for a floating trem with double string locks. One that did find the tremolo specifically intriguing was Eddie Van Halen... I believe that is how the Floyd Rose double locking trem came to fame.
