There are reasons to prefer a floating or fixed bridge, but I donāt think Iāve ever heard or experienced the ease of bends being one of them.
So far I prefer fixed bridge because of the tuning stability.
Here is my trem lock out. The wood being used as a block is a nice piece of light colored maple. I would guess I need to pop that out and screw in the trem arm in with the fend style O-ring and hopefull it will work.
I am pretty sure the whole trim was put in incorrectly and is messed up. No complaints, it was canabalized and in parts bin before. My buddy threw it togeather for me when I told him I was going to make the leap to electric. Honestly it seems to works ok. But as you can see nothing is really aligned correctly either. I dont know if that effects the playing to be perfectly honest.
I suspect only you and I care, and even us not much 
Itās actually a pretty complex system to model I suspect, and Iām a pure mathematician, not a physicist. I donāt normally dirty my hands with real world problems!
Fair, it is quite a complex problem to model.
Absolutely - as I mentioned I didnāt really notice much difference when I decked mine.
Again, I agree
So a better description of the stabiliser in my red Strat, It enables me to simply turn the knob and it turns into a hard tail it locks my trem off it also stops my guitar going horribly out of tune if a string snaps while i am using the trem so i have best of both worlds cheers HEC

Neat idea.
Never saw one of those before. Looks like the rear shock on my Triumph motorbike.

HaHa it does Ian and probably just as expensive mate I do tend to spoil myself when it comes to my guitars
