ABSTRACT:
A guitar tailpiece assembly includes a tremolo device by which the strings may be stretched or relaxed in an oscillating manner and which also minimizes the tendency for some of the strings to shift out of tune as a result of using the tremolo device or when "bending" a note. The tremolo device includes means by which all of the strings can be retuned simultaneously, for example, when transposing the tuning of the guitar so that it is in tune with another instrument.
