spring you'll get almost no downbend at all, even with light strings, but lots of upbend range if you're carefull, and two or three quickly broken treble strings if you're not but some bands might like even that effect (cheaper than smashing the axe...). Two works well with ultra-light srings, or with standard lights gives some downbend but better up. Four and five springs are dive-bomb territory, lots of downbend range, especially if you fit Ernie Ball 2626 strings (.012 top E to to .056w bottom E) or similar, which also gives clarity and stability at the bottom of the dive.

probably be very small, and it's unclear whether the article would survive a deletion proposal. Instead of working on the Tremstopper article I am wanting to add a section here with explanation of what the issues are and how the designs attempt to conquer them. Given that the Tremsetter was available on some high-end Fender guitars in the nineties (I've got a book reference for that), and is still available from Fender, and that the Tremol-No has gotten some reviews, it should be a section which is relevant to the subject and has a fair number of references.
4147:). Looking quickly through the article, I get the sense that it could do with copyediting to tighten up the writing, it seems verbose. If we are considering splitting, then I think one place to start could be to look at which of the main designs are notable enough to have their own articles, meaning that the sections for them get cut down considerably in this article. The current proposal to split is too vague for me to support, I'd prefer to see a proposal with suggestions for what parts would be split out and where they would go. Cheers, 429: 411: 3606:. The device's usage is a matter that is somewhat loosely attached, and perhaps fodder for a separate article (where it risks running into WP:NOTHOWTO). One or two highly credible examples is likely cool, but an ever-expanding list heads toward the WP:NOTCASE wall; if someone is "a notable user," then that would properly be addressed in THAT article, merely noted here. Most people will go to their graves having never played a guitar much less wrestled a trem arm, so detail risks running right past the 2237:
find a place to add new content. It also seemed that the Fender designs could be grouped together and provide a natural place for the "Other Fender designs" section. Lastly I added a section called "Vibrato system additions" to handle tools/gadgets like the Tremol-No and D-tuna (and perhaps others, those were the two I know about) and added content to it. There was very little useful content in the Tremstopper article, most likely due to its lack of references.
3122:- It is worth remembering that this is an encyclopedia and can include all the relevant facts. The name of the article is "Vibrato systems" as each of mechanisms described comprises more than the lever or "arm". The vibrato systems designed for the Fender Mustang and the Fender Bronco were both named VIBRATO, as outlined in this article, but later colloquially termed "trem". And that the Kauffman Vibrola and Bigsby Vibrato both pre-date any Fender "trem".---- 3318:(a rapidly repeated note—or, in electronic effects, automatically fluctuating volume) There are numerous mechanical/acoustic means of creating tremolo. Pipe organs used a rotating shaft fitted with lengthwise vanes placed in front of the mouth of the pipes. Vibraphones used a similar arrangement between the tone bars and the resonators. Both created timbre variation as well, probably contributing to the confusion between "tremolo" and "vibrato". 190: 3694:— so now that's TWICE that you have accused me of making specious claims, when it looks like you should be off fixing the actual burr under your saddle. In brief, it's not "my idea" & if it's incorrect then (1) provide a source for your guesswork & (2) go fix it. The "rubbish" crack is entirely unwarranted; why do you need to turn a mostly-civil exchange of (easily verifiable) data into an insult you feel obliged to attack? 327: 306: 275: 2558: 2964:
talking about! But now it is wrong term? Using Google search we find that in it's Dictionary, Tremolo is defined as Trem·o·lo a noun /ˈtreməˌlō/, 1. A wavering effect in a musical tone, typically produced by rapid reiteration of a note, or sometimes by rapid repeated variation in the pitch of a note or by sounding two notes of slightly different pitches to produce prominent overtones

"Burns developed a…vibrato-equipped Vista-Sonic…bass in 1962.… The ’80s saw Alembic modify Bigsby guitar vibratos for bass, Kahler introduced several models, and Steinberger offered a bass version of their TransTrem in 1987." 483: 337: 3170: 3166: 3162: 4335:(yes, single-wheeled trailers do exist, but most trailers...). My guess is, the author of the abstract had only examined one guitar in any detail. And that's fair enough but they should reflect that in the abstract, and don't, just the opposite, they imply that they've done a survey of guitars, and they obviously haven't. 1132:
string down a full step to D (or in Eddie's case, Db), enabling him to retune for songs such as Unchained without unlocking the nut. What I can't remember for the life of me is where I read this, so I suppose it's not entirely helpful. Hopefully someone else reading this might remember the article I'm thinking of.

But an essential part of this is the scope of the article. A whammy bar is no longer primarily a vibrato device (if it ever was). It should certainly be mentioned in this article, but I really can't see how we can avoid having an article on the whammy bar (by whatever name) as a topic of its own. Nor

was another serial strat player, but he has since been upfront about why... it was because he was smashing them onstage, and the strat is almost modular, it can be separated into neck, body, trem and electrics in minutes and reassembled almost as quickly. So Townshend was able to put the good bits of
3103:
I admit to a POV on this. I was there and probably still suffer from 1970speak in relation to electric guitars. The first decent solid body guitar I ever played was a '68 Jag. So I need to be careful too, and so I'm not going to make the changes I think necessary to de-POV the article for the moment.
2236:
And the merger has now been done. I took the liberty to remove the "History" section, move all relevant headings up one level, and make a sub-topic for the Fender designs. Having a specific section on history without actually having any content except all the other sections made it very difficult to
636:
I've been playing electric guitar for most of my life and consider it an instrument. Yet, calling the vibrato bar/arm a tremolo bar/arm is one of the silliest mistakes a person could perpetuate. A lot of material (guitar magazines, instruction books) correctly call a vibrato bar a vibrato bar. That's

the floating tremolo was not introduced by fender, a floating tremolo is one that allows you to raise as well as lower the pitch you can pull up on the tremolo arm or press down on it it works both ways this was created by guitarist extraordinaire Steve Vai and his guitar tech. Fender tremolo's only

If you can find sources that cite the particular use of the trem on a particular track, by all means add them. In particular, sources that cite exactly what trem mechanism was used would be great. Hendrix' use of the strat trem as claimed may not be 100% accurate IMO... it's a commonly believed myth
2089:
If talking about the angle formed between the bevel and the bottom of the base plate, that's about 150-160°, not a knife edge. That edge is usually in contact with the body, but it can come away from the body, depending on the adjustment of the screws and how far down the arm is pressed. There can

I don't think this is quite correct. I've never seen any original or copy that was like this. Even looking at Leo's patent drawing next to the paragraph, the bevelled "knife edge" at the front of the base plate doesn't touch the guitar body normally. It will possibly touch the body only if the arm

I clearly recall reading a short article in some guitar magazine in which Floyd Rose himself confirmed that Eddie Van Halen had given him input on the range of the bridge end fine tuners. Van Halen indicated that it would be more practical for him if the fine tuners could accomodate tuning the low E
935:
Finally and most important IMO, I've done some rephrasing to the surviving additions to the Rose trem section. The point about the early units not having fine tuners, and being favoured by some guitarists, is a good one but IMO overstated. Most guitarists think the fine tuners are an improvement, as

And also, what range is musically useful? For surf sounds, you're only really able to use the range over which a three-string chord will stay in tune, which is where the Jag trem (properly set up, 30 mins each string change even if only one string) really shines. For shred, the only thing that seems

Looking at the article as it is now, it also appears that most of the content is subsections of the History section. It could perhaps instead be rewritten/rearranged so that it points out that the designs are listed chronologically by time of inventions, and then have sections for each of the main

So, block your trem. Any reputable music shop or guitar tech or many advanced guitarists can do this for you. It makes the guitar play like a hard-tail. I recommend putting a machine screw in the trem arm socket so the trem arm can't even be fitted, otherwise you risk damage if someone borrows your

Never mind the joy of trying to correctly tune a guitar where the bridge moves to lower all strings every time you tune one up. If you use a lot of Drop-D or Eb, it's a nightmare. It's a balancing act that I don't think many musicians want to deal with when the positives are well outside of their

synch trem. It's very interesting if true, but I'm skeptical. I've never heard this development attributed to Rose before. I'd think if it were true that Fender would be obliged to admit it on their web pages, or that Rose would claim it on theirs, and neither do as far as I can see. It sounds like

The most simple kind of tremulant is a weighted electric motor affixed to the top of the reservoir for the division. When activated, the spinning of the motor causes the reservoir to shake, altering the wind pressure. This type of tremolo appeared first in the twentieth century, when the electric

Still another design was used on the student model Fender Bronco, released mid-1967. This was simply known as the Fender vibrato tailpiece, or sometimes the Fender steel vibrato. It was again designed by Leo Fender although he had sold the company by the time it appeared. Basically a synchronized

I don't really see any point to this as it's written, as the information is almost entirely duplicated below. maybe it could be used to illustrate how there are designs involving springs to alter tension with a fulcrum or using flexible metal, or just general overview of how different mechanisms

The Patent filed for the Fender Tremolo Device for Stringed Instruments on August 30, 1954 decribes the bar as Tremolo Control Bar (line 1-21), and this patent uses the same term throughout it's contents. The term Tremolo Bar was used throughout the 50's and 60's, and everyone knew what you were

Yes, exactly. And also the string gauge and the number of springs fitted... the standard strat claw and bridge and most imitations allow for up to five springs but only three are normally fitted. It works with anything from one to five, and perhaps with none at all (haven't tried that). With one

As per the current article, the Kauffman Vibrola predates the Fender Synchronised Tremolo by over 20 years, so I think your statement “the first few decades of guitar catalogs used the terms “tremolo arm”…” is incorrect. Also I think using the term “vibrato system”, emphasis on “system” is more

I think that redirects are already in place to this article for common names. I don’t see the point of a split, myself. “Vibrato system” is an accurate descriptor, as the lever (arm) is the controlling component only. Regardless of whether the above assertion is correct (that the majority of

Hendrix likely played a Danelectro in his early days, and definitely played an SG for a couple of tunes on his Cavett appearance, but almost always stuck with a Strat, in part probably because of the trem (which I wouldn't say as it's OR, and citing someone else's guess really wouldn't be any
654:
Yes, Leo Fender screwed up when he named it a tremelo arm, it should really be called a vibrato arm. Nothing is going to change the fact now. I don't think the name of the article should be changed for this reason, even though it was named incorrectly, that is what it's name is now. Jim

A refactor to create a top level (two =s in wikitext) section specifically on whammy bars would be quite acceptable. It could then link to articles on the strat trem, floating bridge (I'd lump the 'stang trem and Jaguar/Jazzmaster/BassVI units together under that name, as do Fender) etc..

who both make top-of-belly units). I'd prefer no trem to a Bigsby! Fortunately, you can block many Bigsby units simply by slackening the strings and removing the spring, no tools required (do a gentle upbend with the strings slack and it will generally just fall out on the floor, and then

or whatever we decide to call it. A majority of the solid-body guitars sold both today and historically have one, and possibly even a majority of all electric guitars. Its use is an important part of electric guitar technique, while the other systems are rare and/or historic only.
637:
because a vibrato bar modulates pitch. If it modulated volume, it would be a tremolo bar, but it doesn't do that. "Whammy bar", even though it's slang, may be the best thing to call the device. Most guitar-like MIDI-controllers let you assign the whammy bar to any MIDI parameter.

So... the basic designs that have significant following are the Bigsby, the 'strat trem, the Fender floating bridge design(s) (Jag and 'stang... one design or two?) and the modern cam-driven systems based on pedal steel design, which was also largely developed, interestingly, by

2418:(the Jag trem). It seems to be used mainly for the Strat trem and its derivatives, and occasionally for the 'Stang trem. It's certainly not used to describe the early motorised Vib-rola units, so the current name is not an accurate one for the current article contents. 641:
could be tremolo arms. But they could also be vibrato arms or low-pass filter arms or resonance arms, etc. "Whammy bar" is generic and there is no ambiguity. If it didn't sound so silly, I would definitely prefer it. In my opinion, this article should be retitled.

guitars are now available with Rose trems is just not true. No arch-top is AFAIK, nor are 12-strings, for example. It's an obvious overstatement by an enthusiast. But, my original phrase was probably too conservative. I've now gone for something in the middle.
599:
OK, I decided that it was simplest to delete the second paragraph. I don't think the word "tremolo" is used incorrectly in "tremolo arm." The tremolo arm can be used to bend a half step or greater, which is somewhat analogous to vocal tremolo but not vibrato.

ABSTRACT: String instruments such as electric guitars are often equipped with a vibrato system, which allows varying the pitch of all strings as a musical effect. It is usually based on a mobile bridge that is kept in balance by the strings and a coiled

Yes, the redirects are good. Perhaps if they pointed to sections of the article, that would be better. And I'm still of two minds on this! I actually proposed the RM which gave the article its current name. But the results have not been good. See below.

From the playing about i've done with this type of trem, the range depends on the way you set it. For instance, if you unscrew the two screws holding the spring claw a couple of turns, the tail will hinge out further and allow more than two half-steps

The Austin tremulant consists of a large blade that spans the length of the windchest above the pipes. When the tremulant is activated, the blade turns on its longitudinal axis, disturbing the air over the sounding pipes and creating a tremulant
3186:
The validity of continuing to misidentify is that it's easier (amongst guitarists) to refer to "the trem" than "the vibrato." In that context, it's useful jargon. In a WP article, it's (at best) inappropriate folksiness, and rightfully policed.

If a guitar produced its tones via a collection of resonant individually tuned tubes, then a method similar to vibraphones might be used, though likely few guitarists would enjoy carrying about the motor, drive belts, and power

Loosening these woodscrews is certainly possible, but not adviseable. They'll eventually work loose and pull out of the wood, sooner if they're often adjusted and/or very loose and/or if the trem is regularly used.

As a tentative conclusion, I would suggest that if we want to use the most popular term, then the article title should be "Whammy bar". If we want to use the most accurate term, the title should be "Vibrato arm".

That would seem true. As the term appears to be very popular on the web, and is at least neutral in meaning (as opposed to "tremolo arm" which is misleading), I agree that this is the best term to use.

Frankly, I'm not a great fan of the strat trem, it does everything reasonably well and for most working musos therefore probably the only real option, but for most styles there are better options.
