I'll help out with a few shining examples:

Pay particular attention to the solo.

And....

This would also explain why I do not get women. Well...

probably my favorite trem user right here. Michael Lee Firkins is a genious. he basically uses a trem to simulate slide guitar playing.

EDIT: cant believe i forgot this one!

YouTube - Michael Lee Firkins - Hot Licks Video Intro


excellent use of a trem right here. subtle yet effective





also, listen to Gary Holt's solo at the end of this vid




listen to just about anything Steve Vai or Joe Satriani have done too.


it's perfectly fine if you don't like trems. it's just another tool of expression at your disposal.

Nah, I didn't change the strings.

The bitch was not in tune, so I opened the blocks and started to tune it. Why the hell is so damn complicated this fucking shitty system?

Fuck! I'm so angry.
