The inventor of the locking floating tremolo. Floyd
Rose tremolos are designed to keep the
guitar in tune while using the tremolo which other tremolos couldn't do before. They
work because of a locking nut which tightens the string down so movement of the tuning peg doesn't affect it and from being locked at the bridge which allows no movement of the strings. Since they're floating tremolos, they can bend backwards and increase the pitch.
