Q
Useful upgrade
Qwaszxxl 03.03.2021
Pros:
-No need for drilling or soldering (except when you need to remove ground wire from your old FR clamp)
-Does what it was advertised to do, very useful if you are planning to switch between tunings (for example, from standard E to drop D or standard E flat)
-Weights almost nothing, yet feels solid

Cons:
-Installation instruction on the paper is confusing.
-Installation video on the original website is very old, bad quality.
-It took some time to understand, how it should feel when it's properly installed.
-Thumb screws are freaking hard to turn with bare fingers if you want to lock your bridge. I always use some cloth to have a better grip.

I think it's a must-have upgrade for any Floyd Rose user. It doesn't damage your guitar to install. Works wonders if you want to temporarily adjust the tuning of your axe.

Just don't put too much hope that it will be perfect, because it is not. However, it is worth having one on your FR-equipped guitar.

Extremely useful
Mike AG 20.09.2013
I have installed two of these on my floating bridge guitars, and they do make it much easier to manage a floyd style bridge. First of all you can use it for the advertised main purpose, to allow for altered tunings without having to rebalance the whole instrument. Also perfect to safeguard against broken strings. Changing strings can be accomplished far more quickly too, as it holds the system in the right position to start playing straight away once you're in tune.

Build quality is impressively solid, the claw is an improvement over any standard trem claw. Initial set up is a bit time consuming as the alignment must be perfect to avoid friction, but the device is pretty much invisible once this is accomplished. I have found that changing string brands can mean you have to re-set the tremol-no because the tension may differ even with the same gauge. Not a massive dealbreaker since setting up the tremol-no is quicker once you've done it once before. Overall this is a very useful device that adds functionality without taking anything away from the simplicity of a regular floating bridge.

Just ok

Does the initial job, as what is described, i.e. can transform a floyd rose to a hard tail and vice versa. Difference can be felt when changing to the other modes. Makes string chanigng far easier.

Howver,
Friction problems do occur and it doesnt return exactly in place (strings are either sharp or flat (depends on the use). Also, the locking nuts for this unit aren't exactly great and can wear out with relative ease.

Would only recommend for a permanent solution (hard-tail mode, if you don't want to part with the Floyd Rose system)

A simple to install product
johncordy 25.04.2017
The Tremol-No is used for the Floyd Rose of my Suhr Rasmus.

There are plenty of youtube videos that you should familiarise yourself with before installation, as it helps with this kind of thing to really have a good grasp of what you're trying to achieve. Not only this, but Tremol-no themselves have taken care to describe best practice in the installation.

It may be necessary, depending on your guitar, to have longer clamp screws than what is already installed. This is not particularly mentioned anywhere, but my experience was that I'd have preferred to have a slightly longer screw for more security on the clamp.

In short, though, the Tremol-no is well designed, easy to operate, and pretty easy to install. Do also take care to investigate which clamp is required for you - there are a number of different models, and depending on your tremolo block you want to choose one that is compatible and that is going to be a good fit.

One last tip, don't forget (like I did) to keep your old spring clamp handy, in case you want to return the guitar back to factory condition!
