I will admit, I did not embrace the idea of removing strings & replacing the set screw that locks the string in the saddle HOWEVER once getting past that obstacle... WOW what a difference.. my guitar looks so much better and setting intonation is much easier than without these.I am now able to set intonation in playing position!! I wouldn't have believed my younger self telling me that... some people are critical of them but from what I've seen, they are not following the instructions/BLITZ method (look it up on y o u t u b e). I have found they work best on recessed tremolos... original Floyds or Ibanez Edge.. where the fine tuner comes in direct contact with the string set screw.Image is of a Fender Iron Maiden signature Strat with stock/OEM Floyd -- black with mirrored pickguard, not the Dave Murray one.Cheers!

Don't like at all though. Nothing wrong with them. There just seemed to be less fine tuning range with these as opposed to the standard screws. Easy to strip threads on screw.

Easy to install. A bit overpriced and a bit tricky to use. For ease of intonation with the Floyd Rose I'd rather have these than not.

It's a nice concept, but it doesn't seem to work as theorized (adjustment ends coming off track or binding against fine tuners).

I'm so glad this has become available. I've never had to intonate a guitar on Floyd but it must be a nightmare since only tuning on Floyd without securing the bridge is already a pain. This makes it so easy, even easier than the regular synchronized tremolo, or even a Les Paul, because you won't even need an additional tool like a screw driver after the initial setup.

... but I found difficult to install, and, since I don't plan on doing my own intonation, no real benefit from that angle. The two outside screws are easy to line up properly BUT the inside ones are impossible to view so hard to install in the right place, causing the fine tuning screws to bind. Took me quite a bit longer than the video, too. I presumed the problems were due to my amateur installation so had my luthier double check (a well known LA guy) Even after he did intonation and made adjustments there were binding issues. They didn't help him intonate any faster (but he is a professional so maybe it would help someone, just not him). They also decrease the range of the fine tuning screws (because they have a larger diameter the throw of the fine tuner is smaller) so much more clamping/unclamping of the locking nut was required. We took out and reinstalled original screws. I also changed a couple other components of the bridge at the same time so can't vouch for any tonal benefits. I have a slightly used set for sale cheap!

Short and sweet...I put these on one of my guitars, and found that they eat up a lot of the travel the fine-tuner screws used to have, and I don't really care much for the way they make the bridge look. I find it easier to use The Key tool to intonate a Floyd Rose bridge, so I'll continue to use that.
