Tremolo Arm (whammy bar) POLL!!

GuitarMaster

Do you use your tremolo arm (whammy bar)?

Answer: Yes, no, or maybe

I think locking down the trem seems to take away from this guitars ability. Like the Mustang, the Jagstang has this unique (and acually pretty good compared to others) tremolo, so why lock it down taking away your ability to use it when you can just leave it how it is and if you ever need to use it or just wanna mess around with it, its there to use...

Just seeing what you all think

Well, we all know my answer...............

the "whammy bar" is the first thing I remove from any guitar.

because you dont play that style of music or because it makes the guitar go out of tune?

I like to use a whammy bar, but on a Stratocaster not the Jag-Stang. From mechanical design to attempting to secure the trem arm with a single grub screw - it's positively hopeless.

Not using a trem when you have one is going against the design of the guitar. And in doing so you will cause the ghost of Leo Fender himself to come down and crap in your acoustic guitars.

and im not kidding.

That's okay, he's welcome to crap on my Ovation Celebrity... 😉

But there's something in what you say - it's nice to wobble yer whammy.

I agree with James on that video is sick

GuitarMaster

yeah, this guitar has the ability to use a tremolo so why not use it? Why lock the tailpeice down, taking away from this guitars ability?

i use the bars on my strat and jaguar, the 'stang one ain't worth it. i made my own vibrato design out of stuff in the garage which i plan to refine and re-work next time i build a guitar (the one it was on is long gone)
