ABSTRACT:
A tremolo device for an electric guitar consists of pivotal upper and lower plates with fulcrums. The upper plate holds the ends of the guitar strings. The tremolo arm is on the upper plate. There is a relative angle limiting means between the upper and lower plates. A spring urges the second plate into a stopped position against the guitar body. The arrangement of the device is such that in a neutral position the tremolo is locked rather than floating. The tremolo device has a large arc of travel but at the same time is highly sensitive.
