3:33 The moment you said we had to improve our arpeggios first, the first thing popped in my mind was to go through those 120 Giuliani exercises... i'm glad you elaborated on that later XD

Tremelo for any other instrument does not mean to tremble or sustain a note by repeating it quickly. A tremelo is like a trill, except that a trill may be either a half step or whole step up from the fundamental, whatever the note above the fundamental is in the specific key that piece is in. A tremelo, on the other hand, is like a trill, except that it goes multiple steps up. It could be 2, 3, maybe 4 notes above the fundamental. An example would be C->Eb if the key is Cmoll/minor.

It's tremolo, not 'tremelo'

[@sebastiansullivan4770]

I'm not sure you are correct there. It sounds like you're talking about a vibrato with very large intervals. Tremolo is often used as an artificial way of producing sustain. It is done by repeating a note very fast so that it sounds like it is one continuous note. Are you an electric guitarist? Because some electric guitars have vibrato devices that can stretch the string a lot and thereby alow the player to have a vibrato with a very wide dynamic range, as you were describing. These vibrato devices are often called tremolo arms, but that is a misnomer. Because both tremolo and vibrato are modulation effects, it can be easy to confuse them. However, where vibrato is about an increase and decrease in pitch, tremolo is about an increase and decrease in volume.
