Another Floyd Rose alternative?

[m4rk0]

This looks very interresting... this trem has individual trems for each string..

i don't think It would be a replacement for a Floyd, Nor do I think it could do as good dive bombs, but It sure looks awesome!

I wish I knew about it before I gt the Floyd though, Because I would sure buy it.

Ditto, kind a pointless.... :dontknow:

I think it's interesting, but it's not a Floyd or replacement.  At least it doesn't look too cumbersome to operate.

"Another Floyd Rose alternative?"

Vintage 6-hole.  :toothy10:

I don't think It's a floating bridge either, which could be good if you're someone who obsesses over tone.

 

[GoDrex]

not really impressed - I don't want to have to bring my hand back every time I want to use the bar. And then I have to grab the right little lever for whatever string I want? No thanks.

A solution in search of a problem...

That sort of thing could be quite useful for the ambient drone stuff I like playing but I can't think of any applications beyond that.

Still it looks fantastic.

Yeah those would be great for drone metal.  But a lot of things that are great for drone metal are not actually that useful, like EBows.

I have to agree, its not a replacement for a fr, and maybe not that usefull at all..
since I posted this, I found out that it costst almost 700$, and for over $900 you can send your guitar to Sweden, and they route it for you.
the modification is not recommended if you do not have excellent routing skills and experience  :icon_scratch:

There is a whole lot of other crap I want to try before I would spend that kind of money on a bridge! maybe a detemple trem  :icon_biggrin:

The ebow is an underrated piece of kit in my opinion you can do a lot more with it than make long droney noises.

Oh and for that price I think I'll ignore that bridge.

Well, I'd sure like to have one. As long as someone else paid for it, I could easily see myself getting some amusement worked up. I play pedal steel, but your feet and knees engage all the levers so your fingers are free - this seems like it could get very, very frustrating unless you had another arm installed on your right shoulder. It really reminds me of the Hipshot Trilogy, except it doesn't lock.

If a great guitarist gets ahold of one and makes some great music, everybody will want one.

 

[Wana_make_a_guitar]

Put it on a lapsteel.

 

[tfarny]

I think stubhead should get another arm installed on his right shoulder - that would be a SERIOUS gear upgrade!

OT: The Cardinals in the SB?  Seriously??????

He'd get FULL use out if it too!  :icon_biggrin:

 

[rockskate4x]

I think it would be more awesome if you had a bar that could dive or fly with all of the strings in addition to having the individual string levers.
