Interesting. It moves the block and not the saddles or bridge plate.

That means the strings are being pulled across the saddles when you use the trem. That's similar to a Bigsby type of trem. I don't like that idea.

I wonder if it works exactly as well as they say it does, that would be nice. I wonder if it can replace a Fender vintage tremolo bridge

Kind of Floyd Rosey...?

One of the drawbacks that I can see with the trem king is that it'll affect tone and sustain since the trem block isn't in "proper" contact with the bridge, and there are only 2 springs in the back which might also affect the sustain.

there is an option for three springs...... if you watch closely there is a hole for another spring on the other side
