hi there, I just bought my self a Vigier Bumblefoot and its amazing!! Thats 2 Vigier guitars I have now and I will definitely be buying more!
What I was wondering was as the floyd rose is resting on the body would I be able to put an EVH d tuna on it?
Cheers

Well, Eddie van halens guitars don't have a recess at the back of the floyd rose, the trem rests on the body and the terms have d tunas on them.

Hi, yeah I know that. What I was wondering is does it fit the Vigier floyd rose system?

Good point. My error. Hope you get an answer. If I had a Vigier with Floyd Rose, I'd like to fit the D Tuna, too.

After a brief investigation it appears that the D Tuna does come with the necessary hardware to install on your trem. Looks like you'll have to replace the existing string-lock screw with one included in the D Tuna kit. 
The Floyds we use are manufactured specifically for us, but the locks and saddles are the same as their typical Floyds.
If I were you, I would contact the D Tuna guys and just double-check, but at first blush, it looks like you'll be just fine.

Ok great, thanks for your help. I'll probably just get one and try as I've got other guitars it will fit if not.Cheers
