Hi there, I have a Vigier Ultra and was which has the Vigier bridge on it and was wondering if theres any way of stopping it from floating without a tremolo no or trem stopper etc?

I am fairly sure that if you loosen the strings a bit and then tighten the large springs in the back one the guitar a bit the springs will opulent the bridge onto the body. Try say two turns of the trem claw screws, into the body to make the springs pull more. Then retune. If the bridge still floats, tighten a bit more. Don't do too many turns at once!

Yup. In fact, the Shawn Lane model(s) are set up at the factory with the trem flush against the body, for pull-down only.
