Thank God, I thought I was the only one who had no idea what that is.
So - what IS it?

From the website:
Q- What is a Tremol-No™ ?
A- The Tremol-No™ is an internationally patented device that is added to an electric guitar equipped with a tremolo/vibrato unit. It allows guitarists to turn their tremolo unit "on" (so they can raise or lower the pitch of the note with the tremolo unit) or "off" (where the tremolo unit doesn't move at all; no lowering or raising of the note pitch via the tremolo system).
Q- Will the Tremol-No™ fit on any/all guitars?
A- The Tremol-No™ will work on almost every tremolo equipped guitar built since 1954. The rule of thumb is: If you've got 2, 3, 4 or 5 springs in the back of your guitar, you can probably install a Tremol-No™ in it.
If you have questions about a certain trem, or something that's non-standard, please feel free to contact us. Include front and back pictures of the guitar and of the tremolo unit.
Q- What the heck is the "Deep-C™"?
A- The Deep-C™ is an accessory for the Tremol-No™ unit. When locked in place, it allows full floating tremolos to function as 'dive-only' tremolos. Just like the Tremol-No™, it installs with no modifications to the guitar, and can be slipped on in under a minute. For example, your fully floating trem can now be full floating, or 'dive-only', or hardtail. Changing between the three takes mere seconds.

I actually played one this past weekend for the first time that had a binding/tuning problem.
Worked fine if you locked it, if it was unlocked it would cause the guitar to go sharp or flat a 1/2 step if you touched the trem; ie: push the bar down, it stays a 1/2 step flat, pull the bar up it stays a 1/2 step sharp.

An Ibanez UV, current model (UV777BK) but a few years old.

Let's see....jeffrey said:
-You certainly weren't at my place that weekend.
-Mike Martin (a UV777PBK owner) has his test unit in an RG.
-The only one left is Bob Oakman, but the last time I spoke with him, he said he had finally properly aligned his.
So, the question is: who's UV777PBK?
The Tremol-No installation instructions are very clear about how important alignment is. It doesn't take more than a few minutes to make sure everything is smooth, with no binding. Then lock the set screws and you're done.
Unless you change setups or string gauge, you shouldn't have to adjust it ever again.
