Nah, it was a common endorser request for a few years - Satch was just the guy who actually got them to do it.

The nice thing about a locking trem compared to a normal fixed bridge is the strings can't slip. So, if you have locks on a fixed bridge, you have a guitar that CAN'T go out of tune, but also doesn't shift when you do compound bends.

Eh? Assuming there's no problematic friction points such as nut or saddle binding, a locked fixed bridge will move as much as an unlocked one - the issue is neck flex.

I'd e-rep you, but I've never figured out if I'm suppose to give you positive or negative rep as a sign of appreciation

I actually like dots. But I can also see how they could make an axe look "cheap." I like them cause if I have to look at the board I like to have a refference.
