I don't see why not , I used my friends stratocasters whammy bar on my beasts Floyd rose and it worked just fine, didn't feel right though. The best whammy bars I've had so far are 7 string ones.. longer and easier to use.

I've got a Fender strat with standard whammy can you put a Floyd rose locking nut only on it only or will the strings not stay in tune?
Once you lock the nut you can't tune it. That is why a Floyd Rose trem. has fine tuners on it. Are you familiar with Fenders nut with rollers.
Who invented the whammy bar?
Floyd D. Rose invented the Floyd Rose Tremolo at the end of the 70s. This tremolo is famous for its versatille use and possibility to pitch the note up instead of down.
Can any whammy bar fit in any guitar because I just got a new proline whammy bar and it will not fit into the hole of my ibanez GIO so is there something else you have to do to install a whammy bar?
if it doesn't check out the ibanez forums, I was hanging out with one of my friends and she had a strat with no whammy bar so I took the whammy bar off my BC Rich guitar and because it was a different kind (floyd rose) it wouldn't work on her fender stratocaster lookalike. there should be no installation , just put it in I mean the metal is already prepared and a direct replacement, if you can get your money back go for it.
How much does a whammy bar cost?

How do you take the whammy bar off my guitar?
I had the same problem with my new guitar, so its not one size will fit all is the easiest answer unless its the exact same brand and model. this is funny though my 7 string has a much longer whammy bar I like more, I tried to put it on my normal 6 string BC Rich Beast and it wouldn't fit! but the 6 string whammy bar did. They where both Licensed Floyd rose and everything.

Can you put a whammy bar on any electric guitar?
Conceivably you can put a whammy onto any electrice guitar, but it in reality it is a lot of trouble of modification to do so. Answer: You can really only put a whammy bar on a guitar that has a Floyd Rose tremolo bridge. Most Ibanez guitars come with these standard, although some Fender/Squier guitars have a bridge similar to a Floyd Rose, but only whammy bars made by the Fender will fit in the hole. (at least what I've tried) And it is possible to set up a Floyd Rose on any guitar or bass, it just takes a lot of work, and a lot of knowledge because there are some vital parts in a guitar that you might not know what they're there for, so seek some professional help if you are a little uneasy about modifying your instrument.
