That might be unrealistic. With a lot of tweaking and lubrication you can
make those trems stay in tune pretty well, but "hold tuning" with a vintage
style trem is a relative term. Floyds and Kahlers hold tuning. The stock
trems are less precise and can be made to hold tuning pretty well.

The guitar you are looking at seems like it could be a nice axe. I
personally don't care for the vintage style neck ... 21 small frets and 7
1/4 inch radius, but otherwise it looks good. The Texas Special pickups are
darker and more midrangey than other Fender pickups, in case you don't know.
