I have trems on all my Strats, but one of them is locked down. I was just wondering how many use them ?

I use mine all the time. Even if I don't have the bar in, I rest my hand on the bridge and add a subtle tremolo with it.

I had my strat trem pulled tight against the body for a while. The only reason I did this was because I kept breaking "D" strings (yep, you read it correctly - D strings!) and the whole guitar would immediately go out of tune during a gig. After a little bridge work, the problem has been corrected and I am back to a floating setup.

For the most part, I also use my hand on the bridge itself for subtle effect rather than the trem arm, which only sees occaisional usage.
