im probably gonna piss some people off but i dont like em..i think there more trouble then they are worth.. my esp has lockin tuners and it stays in tune just fine when i whammy, just ask TopJimmy78 he heard me whammy the hell out of it and it didnt go out... and i dont have all the other hassles.. now im not sayin floyds are shit so dont go jumpin me guys.. im just sayin there are other things out there in my opinion that are just as good and easier.. but its like anything else its a personal preference to what ya like

too true wiz ! >.

i must admit there are aspects of the floyd rose that gripe me .. one being that you bend a string and the others go out of tune .. so playing a bent double stop sounds weird compared to a normal strat or whatever .. .

string changing is a bit of a bitch too! .. but i'm sitll into em hehe

well to be honest string changin is the thing i hated the most, but your right, bend one string and 2 others go out of tune.. just seemed to me like when ya change your strings it takes you twice as long to get them set in to where they stay in tune.. but you are right once they are in they pretty much stay in for a long time..maybe i just didnt know what i was doin and was doin sumthin wrong that could be the case but im spoiled now with this esp and i dont think i will ever go back to a floyd.. i mean unless your gonna play like vai and use the whammy 90% of the time i truely think theres better options
