is there a trem like the petrucci trem ?

[Ang3lus]

i want one for my two-pivot fender, i sold my old one because i bought the petrucci, bought a new one and the petrucci is like 10000x superior with the feel/action of the trem, is there any trem like that out ?
mannmade ?
wilkinson ?
ANYTHING ?

Try with wilkinson. I like petrucci tremolo better, but Wilkinson is pretty good too.

Yea, as a matter of fact if you watch the Metropolis in New York DVD, you see JP playing a bunch of prototypes, and I believe at that point he's using wilkinson. Obviously before the custom trem was designed

The MM vintage trem is the same thing as the JP, only with a different look

Yeah but isn't the Petrucci trem floating like a Floyd Rose? And I believe it has a cutout (?) so you can pull it up.

 

[Sub1 Zero]

Yeah, but you can float the vintage trem as well check out the Luke for an example.

I had my Sub floating for a while and it slayed

 

[Ang3lus]

yes but you can't get a MM bridge as an aftermarket product.
I narrowed it down to three choices

1. Hipshot Tremolo (fulcrum)
2. Wilkinson VS100
3. Mannmade USA

anyone has any experience with those ?

I have a Wilkinson VS100 on one of my non-Balls and it's really a good tremolo.
But I almost never play the other guitars since I got my first Ball, and I can hardly wait for my second one that should be here soon.

 

[Ang3lus]

any ideas about the gotoh 1055 with steel block ?

I used to play a wilkinson VSVG in my previous guitar (ibanez at300) , and i think it's very great, very stable, very easy to use, and we can do easy setting on it. But it's quite expensive.. i recommend you to try it before you buy
