What is a tremolo on a guitar?
that depends on wat u mean. there is an effect pedal called tremolo, a type of bend called tremolo, and a part that goes on your guitar. You probably mean what is usually called the 'tremolo' floating bridge on a guitar. This is actually a misnomer since tremolo means 'rapid change in tone or volume/amplitude'. What a floating bridge actually does is allows the player to change the pitch of a note or set of notes in much the same way you would with a bend. Changing pitch rapidly in this manner is actually called vibrato, not tremolo. The tremolo effects pedal actually varies the amplitude so as to give the impression that the note is not decaying as fast. Interestingly enough, there are a number of vintage 'vibrato' amplifiers that actually employ a tremolo device. This is why engineers should ask musicians to name their musical inventions lol.

Is a tremolo bar the same as a whammy bar?
yes A tremolo arm, tremolo bar, whammy bar or wang bar is a lever attached to the bridge and/or the tailpiece of an electric guitar or archtop guitar to enable the player to quickly vary the tension and sometimes the length of the strings temporarily, changing the pitch to create a vibrato, portamento or pitch bend effect. Instruments without this device are called hard-tail. The term vibrola is also used by some guitar makers to describe their particular tremolo arm designs.
How do you change a string on an electric guitar?
That would depend on the guitar hardware setup. For some guitars, the head of the string is locked in the body, the string brought over the bridge and wound through the aligning winder over the nut. Others require threading through a tremolo mechanism such as the Floyd Rose tremolo bridge. Most guitars have the string head thread from the bridge, along the neck, over the aligning nut and through the winder hub.
How does a guitar tremelo work?
A guitar tremolo works but altering the tension of the strings along the guitar. A tremolo on a guitar consists of a handle and when pressed or pulled it moves the strings with it. When you push a tremolo arm down it alters the pitch of the struck note to a lower sound by making the string slacker. When pulled it makes the strings tighter and therefore makes the struck note higher. A common example of a tremolo is a Bigsby unit.

Is ibanez a good guitar?
I own an Ibanez RG350MDX it's the only electric I have and I've had it for 2 years and enjoy it very much, If it's a first guitar stay away from guitars with floating bridge tremolo system(ie. Floyd Rose) they are very sensitive and can be difficult to adjust. Keep Rocking \m/

What is the guitar whammy for?
The whammy, or, tremolo bar as it is called in formal music lingo, is a bar (usually metal) that is attached to the bridge. When you pull it (or in some cases push it) It either shortens or widens the strings. This makes the pitch either go up or down. Guitarists use it to obtain a wavy tremolo sound used often in guitar solos and dives.
What is the best tremolo bridge that comes with an Ibanez guitar?
The Edge Pro Licensed Floyd Rose is by far the best LFR bridge. The newer Edge Zero LFR bridge is quite good also but it is quite early to compare them with the older Edge Pro unit. The Edge Zero is just like a hybrid between the Edge Pro and the ZR (Zero Resitance) bridge system found in the S Series Ibanez guitar. The Edge Zero has the same knife edge as the Edge Pro with the improved tuners found in the S prestige bridge tremolo unit -minus the ball bearing as a pivot. The main upgrade would be the Patented ZPS3 spring system allows for the most radical of trem effects. The ZPS-3 acts as a Zero Point System so you won't lose your tuning once a string breaks.
