Need tremelo suggestion plz!

[IloveMyMarshall]

Im sure this has been talked about a millions times. I want to build a non floyd axe,stock trem. I know Floyds are the best for some reason my ears tell me so they are killing my tone so any suggestions on setting up a 6 point stock fender trem, I tried the suggested recommendations over at fender pull the bar until the bridge is flat loosen the outter two screws ect, however, how can i make it where the bar aint as stiff as a board? And I know there will be tuning issues but with a brass nut and other optitons it can be done, if this has been posted point me to link plz I looked I guess Im blind<

Thxs!

i like this method:

I've used a method described by Dan Erlewine. You need to make a wedge shaped wooden block, 6 cmwide, 5 cm high and tapering from about 1.8 cm to .6 cm. You may want to have a few blocks with slightly different dimensions.
As soon as you have a string mounted you can set up the trem in your favourite position using the block as in the photograph, no springs yet. You can fix the trem with the backplate flush with the body - allowing only dives - or with more space, allowing whammy up as well as down.
You have the springclaw already at 2.5 cm.
String up completely, not yet to pitch
Now add three springs as in picture (5 springs if you are into heavy gauge strings)
Tune to pitch
Now haul in the springclaw,
The block will come loose when spring and string are balanced, with the trem in your chosen position.

Right on I took a better look at her wow not a bad concept break a string she stays in tune its almost to good to be true? 110.0 bucks some simple mods to the guitar and install, did you check the vid out? I'm half tempted to try her out what the hell worst scenerio I un install! I just wonder if she effects the over all tone we shall see soon!

I was at the music store and they were gonna stock the Tremking. They got shipped a guitar with one of the bridges on it and they said it sucked. They aren't made with good parts supposedly, the bridge broke in the store.
It's a really good idea but it's kind of a waste if they aren't building it right
