Ever use your tremelo on your electric?

Unread post by sacdeez » Sat Jan 29, 2005 6:25 pm

I opted for the tremelo model vs. a hardtail when I bought my strat. I've never used it except for right when I got it home.

Does anyone even use them???

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

i didnt really want a trem when i bought my guitar... should i ever feel the need for one, i might look into it, but i think itd just be more of a hassle.

I don't use it either....you might want to adjust it so your guitar will stay intune better, but the tremelo wouldn't work-

It is the same. I owned a guitar with a whammy/tremolo bar for a bit. I didn't use it that much. I would much rather have a Whammy pedal. Much easier to get the sounds you want and you don't have to worry about breaking strings.
