ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is disclosed for use with tremelo devices. The method and device incorporate the use of 2, 3, or 6 tremelo device base plates with anchoring means to anchor each of the tremelo device base plates to the face of the guitar at a tilt point in such manner that there is no movement allowed other than the normally desired tremelo tilting movement. This is accomplished by utilization of special anchoring means, and means to return the tremelo devices to their original starting positions when being inactivated. The present invention also discloses several means for joining the individual base plates in various groupings or all together to provide the guitarist with the maximum degree of control over the sounds producable by a guitar that is so equipped.
