I never cease to be amazed by your amount of knowledge!
I installed a Bisby B5 tremolo on my Gibson SG and the guitar still stays in tune as always. However, I installed it with very exact precision. This makes a BIG difference. It is possible that home-installation can turn out better than what they've been doing at the factories. It is also true that tremolos are not for everyone, and of course people have different taste . . .
I installed a Duesenberg tremolo on my SG, along with a roller bridge.
