      I've been waiting for something like this too. I heard a rumor at NAMM last year that maybe Graphtech in conjunction with Floyd Rose might be coming out with one but I couldn't get anyone at the Floyd booth to confirm it and never heard anything more about it since that time

        ^ AFAIK Graphtech is working on a version of their "Ghost" system for Floyd Rose trems, but it´s not ready yet

          If it's going to be anything like the regular Graphtech Floyd saddles, I'd pass... one crank too tight on the allen wrench to lock the strings in, and those plastic saddles will crack!

          I know Ibanez had at least one Edge Floyd copy with piezos in it.
          I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

            Yes, Ibanez Original Edge came with a Piezo option...............Not sure if they still do it though...................

                Think it as a type of pick-up. As far as i know it has ceramic crystals in it. These crystals turn pressure and vibration into electric current.

                With piezo you can get acousticlike sounds of your guitar or combine piezo with your guitars pickups for interesting combinations.
