[haikelzambri]

does anyone knows where i could buy a tremol-no in singapore?
and could u also plz specify its price?(est.)

thanks..

Its not avaliable in SG, but it is from ALLPARTS US. It will cost around SGD 100.00 to bring in... including shipping.

I saw one at TYMC recently. I think it's about 80-90sgd. You can also try davis.

 

[tyzjames]

you can check out www.standardvalue.com.sg , i think they have it.

i already went to davis and all the guitar shops at peni .... i asked them and they said they dont have it... >.<
standard value's freelok is also a trem blocking device but u will have to drill a hole at the back cavity...

i dont mind spending $100+ for the tremol-no as u do not need to drill any holes at the back cavity... all u need is just to replace the claw thing at the back and TADA~...

does anyone know any shops that can help me bring in the tremol-no?
btw where is tymc? is it at bras basah?

if none available then i will have to go with the freelok... T.T

(thanks for helping... giving reps to Apot_red , tyzjames & edgie for helping out )

You're welcome. TYMC is also at peninsula, in front of maestro guitars.

I found the tremol-no more of a hassle than a blessing.

 

[zesn]

for me to keep a trem unit in fixed bridge forever, tuning without hassle, its a bliss.
At least when i suddenly have an urge to switch to floating bridge i can do it anytime

 

[ShredCow]

Thing is, the T-No doesn't keep a fixed bridge "in tune forever". Even when locked (or in dive-only mode), it gets dislodged all too easily.

When in floating mode, it's presence is always felt. It's feels like you got something stuck on your trem.

But it's convenient. An expensive convenience vs a stack of taped-up coins or a wood wedge.

Great idea, good engineering, quality product but it's not quite there.

although i still like it.
i can't help but agree with all the points you mentioned =(
