You NEED to Try This Trem! 

Trem turned him into Dave Gilmour. Now that's good value

Your channel is hard on my wallet!

1:10 That block looks like something Da Vinci would have made if he wanted to make a tremolo lol

Wow that thing is an architectural work of art. They even made the ball ends of the strings show up and look classy, you can tell they really thought of everything top to bottom! Even if it wasn't crucial they still payed attention and made it nice, impressive.

5 more minutes of that wonderful playing please ! 😁😁😁

Thanks! Have to remember this trem for future builds.

That song was very Gilmour! :-)

I've purchased one of these tremolos for my headless guitar and let me assure you, they are the "bees knees". If you ever dreamed that Evertune bridges had a whammy bar - This is it! The best thing to happen to guitars since the Floyd Rose. My guitar really does stay in tune ALL DAY. Even after regular trem use. I don't do 'crazy stunts' with the trem but I do use it regularily in my playing and yet it totally stays in tune. I'm really impressed. On the down side, they are quite expensive. However they are well made with high quality materials. I can tell this bridge will never wear out or break down. Easy to restring and tune, too. Also they look great. I especially like how they feel when palm-muting - totally smooth and comfortable wth nothing spiky sticking out. Postage was expensive as standard postage isn't an option unfortunately. Only FedEx, etc was available but it was mailed same day as puchase. There were a few hiccups in communication on the website - some product information is confusing and sometimes response to inquiries are within an hour, sometimes same day, and sometimes days. I thought I was being ""ghosted" and one point. But please be patient. He answered all my questions eventually. He explained that it's basically a one-man show and he's quite busy. He even once gave me his number and invited me to call, which impressed me. This guy is a genius and is constantly improving and refining his builds. He recently sold me a prototype trem (not available on the site yet) that can lock down in place even better than the default style, which was already better than Ibanez / Floyd Rose trems in the first place. At the end of the day I'm so happy with these bridges, they are worth every penny. Extremely customisable too. Took me a while to dial in how i like it but now it's set up i don't think I'll ever go back to my Ibanez ZR. Now I've just got to figure out what to do with all my other guitars LOL

Shine on baby Shine on! 😄 Love how you play so Gilmour-like. He’s my soloist inspiration. I wish I can put one of these trems on my strat. Thanks again for a great vid Darrel!🙏

Mad respect for the shine on you crazy diamond jam! Super underrated song.

I normally hate product demos, but this was a perfect blend of polished presenter, quality guitar, and astounding new product.

I've been looking at these guys and their tremolos for over two years

I was confused when you showed the trem system with the extended fine tuners at first but then installed a completely different model lol

YES! this is the answer to my question when you installed that FR Rail Tail that could only handle dives. Floating AND double stop stability! YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!

Thanks for presenting this awesome trem! The look and sound of this particular guitar is just stunning!! I'm the kind of cheap-gear-guy, but man, I would trade a kidney for this guitar!

Even listening on my iPad, wow, fantastic tone! Great licks! Thank you!

Hi Darrell, thank you so much for showing us this vibrato system! I had seen the other version on some guitars but didn't know about the stabiliser features - they look awesome and really great, useful additions to a floating bridge! Same kind of price range as Hipshot or high end Gotoh which I didn't expect - I thought it would be more. I'll be checking these out. Thanks man and have an amazing day 😊

Now this is unlike any Stratocaster system I've seen before! It works really well, and looks super sleek :)

Gorgeous piece of kit.

Even more amazing Trem system!! Thanks for the demo!

I really like this tremolo very well made 💙

Very cool tech. Nice to see a company developing new ideas...

What a tone! Beautiful playing, best I've ever heard you play

This is wicked awesome. Especially with your smooth playing.

the tension adjuster/stabilizer is a MAJOR upgrade from all other floating trems. Looks right at home on that strat.

I remember looking at this a loooonnng time ago. Cool!

Wow, thanks for introducing me to a product I didn't know existed and now need on every guitar. GREATTTT.

That’s just pure cool ! It really makes that guitar pop.

WOW I got to get me one of those, amazing!!

The camera quality just pops out. Keep it up man. Love your videos

Great video! Cool trem system. You have to love the top load. Thanks...

I really enjoy this kind of videos, thanks Darrell.

Wow, that tremolo is more than I paid for my strat.

Nice trem. I can't say I ever heard of these guys before but it is good to have an upgrade path for strat types that doesn't involve all the fuss of a Floyd Rose.

Beautiful, simply beautiful Darrell! Thank for sharing.

Very cool, and as always, your playing is spectacular!

Very interesting. I'd like to see a follow up video after you've lived with it for 6 months or so.

It's missing one thing: A simple chrome cover that would fit on top to hide the individual arms of the trem. Some of us old guys prefer our setups to look as clean as possible - I still use the "ash tray" on my Telecaster.

Bought the identical RG after watching your videos. I love the white knobs and pickups! Makes it pop with the red and black accents.

Thanks for that superb Gilmouring! Yup - I'm definitely checking this out for my Shawbucker model. Thanks, DB!

I didn't know that this even existed! Thanks for bringing it too my attention!

Would have like to seen you perform the intonation adjustment as well as the global tuning wheel demonstrated.

That is a really good trem! Very advanced! I'll look into one.

awesome piece of hardware - i like it

I would love to see a comparison video of this and the Floyd Rose rail tail.

You know, I've never even heard of these before. Crazy because I'm SUPER into oddball trems, partially because I'm trying to "build a better mousetrap" as it were, but mostly because as a luthier I'm always looking for new hardware tech to get my hands on. The Wilkinson lineup has been my go-to for a modern trem option for quite a few years, followed closely by the PRS patented trem in its current Phase III Private Stock model incarnation and then of course the original MilCom one piece brass trems Paul originally had helped design (The original manufacturer is a personal friend of Paul's and still produces and sells pre-2000 PRS hardware - entirely with Paul's current blessing and involvement- INCLUDING but not limited to the whole trem system itself in its entirety. Heavy, but totally worth it!) That said, this "Sophia" or whatever it's called most definitely had my curiosity at first but now absolutely has my attention. In fact, it uses a few similar elements I've been working to incorporate into my design, albeit executed in final form much differently than I had imagined. Anyhow, right before I started writing this I went to their website. My brief 20 second gaze-over had me fumbling for my wallet. As soon as I'm done with this comment, I'm ordering one. Literally have my credit card in my mouth right now haha. They're surprisingly inexpensive, all things considered. They run about what genuine, non-licensed Floyd would run you and quite frankly I feel they're getting robbed at that price. It's been a number of years since a piece of guitar hardware or technology has genuinely impressed me to such a degree. I CONSTANTLY bitch about the lack of innovation in the industry, but this gem has restored some hope in me again. Very cool my friend, and I hope yours treats you as well as mine will.

Thank you very much For the review. Ordered mine as I was watching the video thank you

amazing as always!!!

Hi- would like to see a comparison- with sound- feel- good and bad- of floyd rose- bigsby- deusenberg-super vee- coherent light and sound- trem king-stetsbar- etc. Good job on the videos, thanks

I loved this video but I have never had any issues with my bog standard fender floating trem. Its always in tune and even when im giving it 2 and half whole step brick in the wall bends, it doesn't seem yank on the trem.

That looks great!

Nice! I been wanting to get one for one of my Ibanez guitars. I replaced the trem block with a larger brass block years ago on many of my guitars but when I saw an ad for this trem in a magazine, I wanted it immediately. Great review of a great product!

It looks very nicely made to the point of being eyewateringly expensive. The integrated stabilizer system might be less awkward than the tremsetter/tremol-no type devices and the thumbwheel will undoubtedly be faster than adjusting the claw screws. Personally I prefer fully floating over a stabilised type. You can spend a lot less money to get a decent floating action though. The Wilkinson two pivot bridges work very well, and paired with decent locking tuners you can really abuse the whammy bar and not lose tuning. The gotoh two points are a bit better, but the price thereabouts doubles. I'm gonna guess that the system in the video is more than double the price of a gotoh, it's complex and very nicely machined. There is a case for using a stabilised trem live even if you'd normally use a floating trem though, as I've always had a hardtail or blocked trem guitar available for songs where I don't want the trem to flutter or need to play union bends. This usually means I play a hardtail (or blocked/screwed down tight teen) most of the time and reach for the stunt guitar when it's my turn to show off. If you set a stabilised system up in a way that's right for you, it's possible to play a very varied set on just the one guitar. This is particularly useful if you're on a small stage with no room for a rack of guitars, or shoehorned into an orchestra pit for musical theatre.

I saw my guitar in your video ... :)

Looks and sounds great.

i never care about what hardware u r using, what i really enjoy is ur playing , i really couldn't stop watching ur playing, its so wonderful!!!

I love my Floyd Rose rail tail it keeps my strat in perfect tune dive bombs all day long and great intonation. Hard to beat it.

So how did it hold up? Do you still like it? I've always been more a fan of hardtails, but that is a very interesting bit of machinery. Great video, thanks

Love it.....love it....finally.....

That's really cool!

Pretty cool, but it probably costs more than all my guitars together. And I'm a 61 year old beginner. Hopefully I won't suck so bad that black holes run from me.

Finally a little innovation. ... take that Fender...! And great industrial design.

I indeed had an excellent day today, so thank you very much

It's looking good & awesome stuff

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun. Shine on you crazy diamond. Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky. Shine on you crazy diamond. You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom, Blown on the steel breeze. Come on you target for faraway laughter, Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine! You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon. Shine on you crazy diamond. Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light. Shine on you crazy diamond. Well you wore out your welcome with random precision, Rode on the steel breeze. Come on you raver, you seer of visions, Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine! David Gilmour, Richard Wright, Roger Waters

So you adjust action by the posts and it comes with the radius preset but what about intonation?...

Functional AND attractive. The trem is pretty nice too!

Bro that trem system looks so nice and very very high quality love it man just love it lol great video

I think I got physically attracted to that trem during demo. Anyone else

How about a comparison between the Sophia, Floyd Rose Rail Tail and the Contour Hipshot.

Sounds terrific, beautiful playing.

I like the jam... sooo good!!!

Looks beautiful. It also look super expensive.

Nice playing by the way. Sounded a little bit like David Gilmour-ish

that block is an incredible piece of engineering. the whole thing really!!

So majestic 😭😭😭😭😭😭

But, it's $225. Ouch!

So how do you adjust the intonation on this system?

My fender will have one soon, thank you.

Amazing Strat with an amazing tone and Gilmour style solo🤘🤘🤘

My dude, I think you forgot to screw in the screw that's to the right of the trem on the pickguard

Checks the price... Just as I thought.

Holy schnikes! I had no idea anyone was doing anything this cool with tremolo bridges.

Well I made the block measurement and picked the pro up! Very excited to install on my Fender American Professional II !!!

I get all of the features and whatnot, but all of the moving parts in the block really bother me :/ Call me crazy, but I'd rather have a weighty piece of solid brass under the trem. You can add a stabilzing system to a heavy block, but you can't add solidity to a multi-piece, self-stabilizing block. It's a cool idea, just not something I'd ever use, especially at the price.

This thing makes me re-think decking the trem on my Strat. I may have to get one of these.

Seems like the right choice for a higher end instrument. Nice upgrade Man

That Strat looks soooooo nice!

Cool demo! I think I need one for my strat now.

Just bought a Custom Shop Strat and this trem is the first mod I'll be installing. I haven't had a Strat for twenty years it's gonna be fun fun fun.

LOVED that Gilmour-esque jam!!

Shine on you crazy Darrell 😎

Grrrreaat sound!

Yep, I hated the floppy trem bar on my Strat too so I took it off and slid on a drill bit stop first (removed the set screw), then a spring and finally a flat rubber washer (all stuff I had in my toolboxes), screwed it back in, and now it's perfect and stays where I want it but rotates out of the way easily. Best part is it didn't cost me a penny. ;-)

The only word I can say is, beautiful. And you play extremely good. You really rock 😎🎸thanks🙏

Thursday vid, cool! You show great faith in this new Trem, putting it on your favorite Strat...

Really nice, pro quality video... oh yeah the trem system looks great. Thanks for giving me something else to “need”.

Excellent video !!

I need this in my life

beautiful videos, beautiful music, ohlala!!
