    I enjoyed your playing on the youtube video clip too, it doesn't take much to get used to a trem system, try listening to some of your favorite guitarists that use a trem and see if you can emulate what they do.


    The guitar is said to be one of the easiest instruments to play, but one of the hardest to master, if you keep putting alot of work into the playing of it, it is going to reward you.

    Once you get used to the trem system it will open up lots of expressive possibilities, what I like to do is what I call the "Surf Shimmer", you basically play a barre-chord, such as an e-minor at say the 7th fret, strum the strings, then use the trem to slowly drop the pitch of the chord a bit and then bring the pitch back up, works great with a clean sound with a bit of reverb on it, have a listen to Hank Marvin from the Shadows.

    Impressive range of sounds you're getting out of it already. What does the front bottom knob do on the treble bout?

    You 'n me both. I've got a Rocker 30 I need to sell because I bought a Rockerverb 50 for a price I couldn't pass up. I don't WANT to sell it, but the finance police isn't aware that there are TWO bright orange combos in the studio...

    Hey Muzza, I'm pretty happy with it! So the knobs - the front one near the "f" hole is neck pick up vol the one behind that is the bridge pick up vol. the single knob next to the pick guard is master vol, then the knob next to the 3 way is the tone

    Haha nice! How can you not notice 2 master pieces?! My husband is really wanting me to get the micro terror! It's great haha
