Personally, I think Vigier(www.vigierguitars.com)'s take on a Schaller Floyd Rose's gonna be the next big thing. Instead of using knife edges to pivot on--like everybody else does--this tremolo uses a ball bearing system which never wears out! Great for all of us EXTREME whammyers who, in the past've had to resort to having our Floyd's knife edges resharpened every few months or so. I'm not too good on posting pics on here (i.e. I don't know how to do it), but I'll leave a link to a pic of it as well as the link to Salwender International (www.salwender.com) who're the North American distributors for these trems. Okay, you can check out an enlarged pic of it at http://www.vigierguitars.com/GCatalog/GIcata/VE6Tre.jpg

Needless to say, they come in either black or chrome (Sorry, no gold. Rats!) & cost around $220 w/out the locking nut & $250 with the locking nut. Anywho, just thought I'd pass this one along. Laters! :)
