Guitars Upgrade Tremmory S

the idea is nice , but the 3 size offered are simply too long for many floyds , a shorter piston wold suffice .I took small and is ok (still touches claw if you bend up a lot ) . i can NOT see how medium or large size ( longer piston ) would go in any guitar.. piston would bee too long right away.
Installation is very hard ( I DISSASSEMBLE my FLoyds since decades so i know what i say) .Cause is very difficult to catch end of the spring wither way , they should at least prepare one side already ready to be connected , i scratched my tremolo block , so tight..and i'm a muscular guy _
it works "partially" , you go out of tune if you go drop D but slightly so ok for live use , not for recording. Bendings get lot easier and similar in feeling ("halfway feeling") to the hardtail bridges . It also slighltly change tone of strings , but not in a bad/good way ,justt little different -if you disengage with the provided thumbscrew ,the sound get back as before .
It does noise /resistance even in the piston (not picked by the amp) cause the tremolo block and the claw are not in same "line " ( adjusting action put away from same line cause normal springs have their own line different from the tremmory,thouse piston has a not perfect straight insert action) .
As it has those little drawbacks i think is too expensive ,would be more right to be in the 70/ 80 € price than 110€ as is sold , in my opinion .

The Tremmory is clearly a well built and quality product but it's not exactly cheap and I was disappointed with it. I was using it with a Vega-Trem on a Strat and was looking to improve tunning stability. The S size fit perfectly in my guitar so that was not an issue for me.

The first thing I noticed is that, I expected it to change the feel of the trem but not as much as it does. For me, it completely destroyed the feel of the trem making it way too stiff. I will dive bomb somethimes but 90% of my trem use is subtle with small movement. The Vega-Trem is incredible for that, even more so than the Floyd it replaced on this guitar.

But I might have gotten used to it if the results had been more conclusive. I'm not sure why but the stunning stability was pretty hit and miss with the Tremmory. AT first it worked pretty well but after a while, I had to retune after locking it and not all strings would return to pitch. Coming from a Floys where I could count on perfect tuning stability (sometimes require just one minor retune during an entire 2 hours show) it didn't cut it. And I didn't expect perfection either. I had this guitar at one of our best local luthiers (I live near Montreal) and he reverted the Floy on this guitar even putting back a normal nut with the wood work that required on the neck (Tusq XL nut).

WHat is now working great for me and is almost as stable as the Floyd is the Guitar Nutbuster. It sits behind the regular nut so does not affect the trem feel at all but it's not as easy to handle as the Tremmory woulr have been. It has microtuners but the range is not great so any bigger tuning change requires unlucking the affected string, tuning and relocking just like a Floy locking nut would. I loved that I could use the guitar tuners normally with the Tremmory. I just wish it would have been as stable as the Guitar Nutbuster but it's not been that for me so I removed it from my guitar. I'll revisit it later but, for now, I'm using what works and does not impede my playing feel.
