The Speedloader works great!
I have 2 guitars with the system, hassle-free, easy to change, and they stay in tune BETTER than an OFR!

Very responsive, the trem-stop in the back keeps it Uber-stable, but you can easily back it out if floating's yer thing.
:toothy10:
BTW, yes, you DO have to buy the special strings, but they're still cheaper than say, Elixirs, they last LONGER than "normal" strings, due to the lack of kinks that occur with bridges with more traditional saddles/nuts (including the OFR...let me state, is STILL a great trem)
Plus, you rarely have to re-tune.
I will admit the small microtuners (located in the saddles, besides the larger "Floyd" tuners, take a littel getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, becomes second nature.
With the Trem-stopper in place, with one of the appropriately-gauged strings, you can re-tune about approximately 3 steps...try THAT with an OFR!
One thing I really feel Floyd Rose made a mistake with (and that is a rare thing for him), was in not offering it with 25" scale as well as 24-3/4 and 25-1/2" scales.
I just wish some "Eddie" or guitar hero would use one, so it would catch on...
(Disclaimer for any trolls...as with that debate over the Super-Vee, which I will be trying once my guitar gets back from the shop...I am NOT shilling! Izzat as clear as an azure sky? Thank you.) :icon_biggrin:
