What's the difference between a regular tremolo and a floyd rose tremolo? (O!
Question: I'm sure the kind of guitar the tremolo is on won't matter, but what's the differences between a floyd rose and standard tremolo (like the one found on a stock fender)? Thanks in advance.
And 10 points to the one with most differences pointed out.
Here's the Fender with the Floyd Rose Licensed Tremolo

With the Rose, you can go both up and down in pitch. The standard is down only. Depending on the style of Rose, some have string locks on the nut and micro tuners on the bridge. THe MAJOR difference is the Floyd Rose can be a real PITA to set up. THe standard is pretty simple.
the standard fender trem has les of a range than floyd rose, so its for more bluesy sounds. floyd rose can go really low and high so usually for rock/metal sound theyre used. but its mostly just your preference, whatever is more comfortable and whatever you think sounds the best is what you should go with
