    The bridge is a ‪@VegaTrem‬ installed with no modifications needed. It was a simple swap and I'll never go back.

  • @mattmartinez7135
    @mattmartinez7135 Рік тому

    I’ve seen quite a bit of your videos lately. I love your bends and tremolo work. With that being said how do you keep your g and b strings in tune after bends? Soon as I bend they’re out of tune till I dive the trem. I can set it up to where they stay in tune when I bend but then they go out of tune when I dive. What’s the magic!?

    • @AmarAlhoch
      @AmarAlhoch  Рік тому +1

      Thank you! That's strange. My first guess is your nut isn't filed for your string gauge. So when you dive it binds on the back side. When you bend, it binds on the front side perhaps. 🤔

    HI AMAR, here is my offer, since your brain is able to blow soul into your guitar, the music (in whatever way you might interpret it, I'll consider you would get what i mean). I can't be sure of your thoughts (kind of a silly comment has this been) about your mind set, but relying on my theory and my brain under the influence of alcohol that musical brains have no prejudice against anything. May i ask you considering giving a shot to play agladikca, at least first 30 seconds of it, I would (and most of the people in my country would) love to hear your interpretation of it.

    I'm really indecisive with vibrato systems at the moment. I know the vegatrem is good but I also recently saw the falcon trem that goes in those levinson blade guitars. rick toon also has this crazy trem out. And I am not sure if I should lock my strings at the nut or not. Maybe someone can give me their thoughts?

    • @AmarAlhoch
      @AmarAlhoch  7 місяців тому

      I've only tried the Vega from those. If you're not doing anything crazy, no need to lock it. Another option is rolling nut. I've never tried one but I'm curious!

      I focus technique practice on 3 things: controlling tension, economy of motion, and accuracy. That's really the only secret. As for your second question, I advise using whatever techniques you like the sound of. Sometimes I'll use legato, other times alternate picking, hybrid picking, or a mix of all 3. It just comes down to the sound you want. 👌

      No, I think it’s floating, meaning the trim spring tension is low enough so that the bridge is not held against the body of the guitar, i.e. you can bend sharp with the bar if you want. New and exciting ways to go out of tune 😂 (for me).
