I do as well mind - but as you say Matt it depends on the music.

I wouldn't really use my Ric for say playing Van Halen music - now for playing Who, or Jam tunes it's perfect, Like wise I wouldn't play Tube Station by the Jam on my Frankie.

I love Floyds, but the guitar I want to get now (Jenna Jameson King V) does not have one. It will be a big adjustment, but it also depends on what is being played.

it's beyond me why anyone would actually want a "Jenna Jameson" guitar...

It's like a bad joke...

It could get a guy VD...with all those pointy ends & such:p

Floyds are cool and I couldn´t live without having a few FR equipped guitars.

Whammy bars have been working fine for the Fender Strat for over 60 years. In fact, to me a strat without one is like a dog without teeth!

I´ve been getting into Bigsbys lately, of course not without a roller bridge mod.

I might not want the Jenna model, but at least a King V of similar quality.

Whammy Bars are a tool just like your Guitar/Amp/Speaker Cabinet/Rack/Multi Fx.

I like Floydd Rose trems but the can be a pain in the arse when you break a string etc. plus alot of the time when I use a Floydd the string/note goes flat.

Floydds are good when they work properly.....not floating.

The best Trem is a Strat Trem....Easy to set up and easy to keep in tune(If they are set properly).

A properly set up floating Floyd works just fine.
