Yes. Vintage trems are notorious for going horribly out of tune when even slightly depressed.

Solution?

Floyd Rose.

Cons?

Re-tuning it is a real pain. Yes, you have to unlock the clips, but you also can slight-tune with the little adjustment knobs at the end of the trem. But yes, it's quite a pain to re-tune it if you need to.

I've been looking for a ZR-Trem for awhile..... unless you buy an Ibanez S, it's very hard to find it as a loose piece. You might have better luck on eBay.
But I'm looking to buy an OFR to replace the one on my Razorback. Really isn't that fantastic.... goes out of tune (but then I REALLY abuse the trem), and right now, the trem bar doesn't lock/unlock properly.

RR3 has it's own unique tone. Sure, you can compare parts and what-not, but it still sounds unique.
I LOVE my RR3.... but I also love my Zakk Wylde LP AND my Razorback 255 AND my LP-100....... each of them has it's own unique features and quality.
