I have two guitars with Floyds and love them. The only problem I have with them is that the back of my hand rubs on the fine tuners for the 5 and 6 strings and knocks them (slightly) out of tune as I play. Definitely not a big deal at all, but I'm with DR6 in that I took some time to figure out how to get them setup properly to start with.
I just recently got the itch to try a Wilkinson based on recommendations here and from another friend. Wow is all I have to say. As much as I like the Floyd, I like the Wilkinson. The one major difference is that, to my ear, the variation of the Wilkinson is more 'linear' rather than 'exponential' like you get with the Floyd. It just seems that the Wilkinson is more subtle in the rate of change to the pitch, if that makes sense.
Just my $0.02 anyway.
