      You can make a standard fender term system float. If you still want a tense bar leave all the springs in. If you want a lighter bar take a spring out. Then you will see two screws holding the system into the guitar(not on the actual bridge but the other plate that the springs come off of). Loosing these screws a couple of turns and test the bar. If it comes out of tune tighten the screws one turn till you can use the bar and maintain tuning. The bridge should still be floating if you don't put the screws too tight. I was able to do this to a squire and it still stays in tune even when I'm doing some Van Halen whammy stuff. You won't get as much back movement as you would with a Floyd rose but your bridge will be floating enough to do some simple back facing bar tricks (like the ruler one).

    A few months back my brother bought me a Kirk Hammett Cry Baby Wah pedal. In my mind I thought it was going to be easy to use and I’d sound awesome. I had no idea what I was doing or how the pedal even worked. Got frustrated, felt a bit like a cry baby myself and put it back in the box. About a week later I decided to try again but with a bit of help. found your video on wah pedal tricks, and suddenly the planets all aligned perfectly and I saw clarity. Next time my brother came over I melted his face. Mr Hammett himself would have been impressed with my awesomeness.
    I doubt I’d have got through that without your guidance.
    And here I am, about to become a new level of awesome with my whammy bar.
    Thanks 😊

    I really love using my whammy bar, but I rarely do those ones you did at the beginning haha. I usually make it bend two semitones down or up, at most. Also, I don't usually tremor the notes on the fret board, I end up bending the notes too high lol, also if I do those huge push-ins with the bar, usually a string "pings" and I have to re-tune it after sometimes.
    I just tremor most of my notes by just finger-noting on the frets and using the bar to do the vibrato

    @raserapps8230 8 місяців тому +1

    Number 1. This is the way.
    I bought a preowned ESP that should have had a pretty decent original Floyd Rose but the last owner had swapped it for a really cheap copy before selling it. Plus side is I got the guitar cheap and it has active EMG pickups, downside is the tremolo was poop and had all sorts of issues. So for about 6 months of owning the guitar it has been blocked off like a hard tail. This week I finally got my act together and bought a new full locking tremolo system. I finished fitting everything tonight, and tomorrow I will be cleaning up the fretboard and fitting some new slinky pinky’s and will finally be able to swing on that bar.
    Harmonic divebombs are first on the menu for tomorrow.
    Thank you

    The slurring technique actually is quite the most musical of all the whammy bar tricks, if you listen to Jeff Beck, Vinnie Moore, early Andy Timmons and Steve Lukather the way they use it is beautiful kinda soulful too.. Steve Lukather calls it "scooping the notes" and Michael Caswell (RIP) a teacher from Lick Library perfectly demonstrates it.

    My Gibson Les Paul doesn't have a whammy bar but it's already out of tune just because it's a Les Paul. I definitely can't do any of those tricks on my Strat without having to retune often. But I have 6 Ibanez axes with double locking floating trems. Which is perfect...an Ibanez for each of the 6 whammy bar tricks.

    Question: can you use a whammy pedal and pitch shift pedal to get same results and also for pinch harmonics?

      Yes, on paper you can. But you’ll never have the same dexterity on a foot pedal that you’ll have on a whammy bar.
