After a fairly simple install on a Jackson (just replacing the existing Floyd and locking nut- pretty no-brainer stuff) ) I have a say that I am hearing more "prescence" and sustain compared to the stock FR Original. I'm impressed. If you've played locking tremolos before you kind of get used to a lot of their idiosyncracies. Moving bridges, Floyd or otherwise, don't sustain as much as set bridges- it's just physics, and they can rob a bit of high-end, which may be good or bad depending upon your rig. But the Titanium Floyd Rose adds a lot of that back and it's also noticeably lighter, which is OK by me. I don't think you can ask for a better, more toneful and well-made locking tremolo than the Titanium Floyd Rose.
