EVH D-Tuna alternatives?

I don’t know if this exists, but are there any alternatives to the EVH D-Tuna that work on floating Floyd’s? I don’t want to give up the floating part of my JEM, but I really want to be able to go to drop d easily.

Use a Hipshot Tremsetter along with those for floating trems (it's not a trem block;  you can use the bar as per usual albeit with a little stiffer feel).

What is the tremsetter exactly? Does it stabilize the bridge when wanted, and can let it function as a normal floating bridge when wanted?

You attach it in place of the middle spring. It is screwed into the body instead of attaching to the claw. It has a screw to fine tune the tension you need, which if you are using a D-Tuna or alt you will need to be on the stiffer side.

Oh ok. So it keeps it in a specific position, but still allows you to pull the trem up and down, just a little stiffer. Then I could put a D-Tuna alternative (it sticks out to much for most floating bridge guitars), and it’ll work fine, and I can still use the floating trem. I’m I understanding correctly?

Yea, that's for normal floating function (not for trem fixing/blocking; for that you would use something like a TremolNo, but if you wanted that why even have a JEM haha).

As to D-Tuna sticking out too much on some guitars, some guys just grind them down a bit.

Awesome! I’m going to look into that. Thanks for the suggestions! I found an alternative with good reviews and is much smaller. It only sticks out slightly more than the normal screw thing.

Which one?

I think it was called ToneVise?

Sounds good!

Yeah. It twists instead of pulling out so it takes up much less space.
