"The Sophia tremolo’s design is such a vast improvement over previous systems that it’s an understatement to call it the most significant tremolo system upgrade introduced since the Floyd Rose." Guitar World
Playing performance it feels great, smooth, stays in tune .... Really like the sleek look and no rough or bulky edges to it.... As far as the dual stabilizer goes, it works and helps eliminate palm pressure to maintain pitch and pulls backwards nicely.... easy to feel and hear once the pistons come in contact with the body, there's an added tone transference throughout ...

The tone was a very noticeable positive improvement, much more fuller all over ... the trem really is the best Floyd type replacement out there today. Thanks again for all of your detailed guidance
Is it really that good ?
Yes & with a lot of fine tuning ability, if you have a Floyd equipped guitar it's an invaluable upgrade

Enormous thanks to Rick Canton and Geoffrey Lee McCabe. You gentlemen are brilliant. NO ONE is doing what these guys are doing.

the tuners feel ridiculous
the simplicity of this thing and the precision ... -Jimi T
