the third eye Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 some people just prefer not to use a tremolo cause they don't really need it or don't like it the advantages are firstly string changing and setups are easier (only as opposed to locking trems) and there are sound differences too like better sustain and tone although tone is always relative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the third eye Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 sorry bout the misunderstanding strings through the body would be for sound quality (more vibrations or resonation sent through the body) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
