‼️Dweezil Zappa demo’s one of the best guitar trems on the MARKET and MELTS our faces off! 🤯🎸

[@JohnnyBeane]

Sounds like slide guitar. So cool!

[@ia5662]

the way he plays it sounds like he's copping a convincing slide! So cool

[@johnnyringo8174]

Vega Trem is killer! Stays in tune great, feels incredible.

[@TruthSurge]

reminds me of how Jeff Beck had his Strat vibrato bridge set up. Seemed quite slippery.

[@mwbrada]

Clearly Dweezil was hugely influenced and inspired by Jeff Beck.

[@NegdoshaManido]

I put a Vega Trem on an early Squier Strat because the stock bridge was unusable. I know, I know. A Squier? :D I was blown away by what an amazing piece of hardware this is. Stays in tune without a locking nut. The thing is totally worth the price!

[@AAAA-lt9hq]

2:57 As an OFR/Schaller guy, I was going to ask, "But does it flutter?" And yes it does.

[@fatherno5721]

Dweezil makes the Vegas trem sound like slide and I like it!

[@StormdriverOne]

I have a Steinberger GM4T and a properly setup TransTrem is a glorious thing. My Strat trems are definitely not loose and wiggly like that and I wish they were. I might have to look into this.

[@Bikewithlove]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude! I l still listen to Confessions. This beautiful cream guitar gives me an idea…

[@MichaelDouglasSkewes]

Ask him one more time about no locking nut! I did that,I didn't play for 4 years and it took me about 6 months! This guy is a Natural!

[@1972Georges]

put this into my old fender strat. best trem out there.

[@zyxwfish]

I have that trem. It’s the best trem I’ve ever played and it has the best tone of any trem.

[@MastersofShred]

😳😱😳😱 Yeah, we really need to get our hands one of these!🙌🎸🎸🎸

[@zyxwfish]

@@MastersofShred there is another product called a guitar nut buster. It’s a product that sits on the strings past the nut and locks the strings. The Vega trem plus the guitar nut buster allows for tuning stability equal to or greater than a Floyd rose original. The really great thing about the Vega is you can change saddle height. That way it works with any radius fretboard easily.

[@emptywig]

No faces are melted in this video.

[@BrianBlack-rf6iw]

Except mine. Majorly underrated

[@BrianBlack-rf6iw]

I had my 1993 Nuno Washburn set up the same way

[@Ray-xx5np]

@@BrianBlack-rf6iw 100%. I've never understood why he's never really mentioned among great guitar players. I saw him on the Experience Hendrix tour a few years ago. He was easily the best player there. He kinda reminds me a little of Jeff Beck in his unusual phrasing and use of the trem.

[@richardsemuta1089]

I just said out loud how good a player he is and wondered why he isn't a hired gun. He could easily be a fill in for any band.

[@martinwray7001]

What a player. Everything he does sounds so musical.

[@patrickkem689]

Really loved the guitar!

[@johnmcminn9455]

Wow sounds a little like Leslie West of Mountain, when he was using Steinberger guitars and 5150 amps Live 93

[@briandietrich1373]

Nice! I'm still a big fan of the Kahler USA 2300/7300 series trems for this very same reason!

[@doknox]

Sounds like slide more than trem. Super cool!

[@bikerjon8934]

yes

[@Jclements45]

Love mine! Best in the biz!! (Vega-Trem)

[@commercialking]

What’s this about a new Trans-Trem? Got any more info or links?

[@MAX96MENDES]

Even though it may be a little expensive, THIS is the best Tremolo system out there, which I can compare it to a Floyd-Rose. Its perfect.

[@jeffmancuso2715]

Installed three of these last year, Totally agree best trem ever. The most buttery smooth feeling trem, very responsive. I feel like its up range is amazing. My only concern is the black finish seems to be wearing off fast, and I did have an issue with the black screws to install. They got all beat up. they where just in a bag with other parts.

[@mikal]

Ruff Cutt did some really low drop tuning in the early 80s. Not sure if they dropped to B or not without re-visiting.

[@keithmarum5008]

You know, there's something good about not practicing too much, but never practice too little as you get older.You don't want to burn the joints site in your hand and your fingers.And that's the only downfall about aging.So he might be right about certain things that I know myself.Sometimes I practice too much.My hand gets a little bit sore but if I just practiced just to write him out, it feels good and I don't get any stress anyways.Thanks

[@JohnnyBeane]

The Vega Trem is my favorite tremolo!

[@MichaelDouglasSkewes]

Kahler! They are great trems!

[@peterr6621]

I heard about the Vega-Trem before but this video made me buy one! It arrives today. It'll replace the old Wilkinson Trem in my Don Grosh Strat.

[@mattdylan664]

can't imagine not picking up a guitar at home for three years anymore than i could go without food or oxygen

[@michael_caz_nyc]

I love my Gotoh 510 on my Suhr. It's phenomenal. I do like the Vega Trem tough. oNe Love from NYC

[@warrenmooney9422]

I have one of these trems on my strat along with the Fender roller nut and I can say that the guitar stays in tune no matter how aggresive I get with the trem. Such a smooth action. It's even better than my German made Floyd Rose trems and I have a few of those. This is a great trem and worth the money.

[@willrichtor]

It's all about the setup. My 6 screw trems on my Strats don't go out of tune. You can't do the same extreme dives that a Floyd or Kahler or some other trems can, but you can absolutely be every bit as stable with a synchronized trem and split shaft kluson tuners if you take the time to set it up well and do a good job when you string up.

[@iggiignatius9907]

Mega Trem

[@GrandpaJams]

Your a incredible guitar player

[@bobolson5423]

I have one on my Strat build. Vega Trem is the best in my book. I do use locking tuners as well. And I can get pretty aggressive with the bar. Tuning stability is fantastic and maintenance free unlike Floyd rose. Pita to set those up.

[@tymanngruter1808]

Iff Dweezil says its good, i believe him! Disclaimer.... i have two off em on very different guitars! 🥳

[@1683clifton]

Might have to just build my own super Halen amp! Thanks for the 1x12 idea.

[@RobOwenMusician]

I have a Fender Deluxe Roadhouse Strat with the same Vega Trem installed on it. It sounds and play, amazingly! I'm actually looking to sell it because I'm not right-handed. I bought it because I was able to get it on layaway for an alright deal and I like to have both left and right handed guitars on deck but I need a new lefty guitar...so it needs a new home. It's the Deluxe Roadhouse model that retailed for close to $900 (the one that came with locking tuners) and it has the Vega Trem upgrade.

[@matthewotremba9230]

Almost heard Duane slide work as he Tremmed

[@traditionaltemple]

I put one of these on my Strat about a year ago. Worth every penny. The Vega is the best Strat style trem bar there is. My Strat was always pretty good at not going out of tune, but now it never goes out. And its just as touch sensitive as Dweezil is showing here. Buy one, you will not regret it.

[@ronmorey3475]

Can the arm tension be adjusted and can you make it dive-only? Thanks

[@deandee8082]

I have one gold model, they are real good trems for sure .. nuther good way to set your 6pt trem up is to do it like a dual point using PRS style ring shank screws, these screws have a ring cut into them just below the head and the trem sits right in there, this way like a 2pt trem you can use as many screws as you like well at least 2

[@brandonjackson5865]

This is a game changer for 6 screw trems I bought six prs style screws and started with six but eventually wound up only using the two outside and it’s an incredible difference in feel and tuning stability

[@crilf5830]

Cool strap too Dweezy. Oh boy.

[@jackvai2681]

VEGATREM IS THEEEEEE TREM!

[@earlbrackett6508]

how many springs are utilized ? springs are the key imo...my Wolfgang's Floyd Rose has the finest springs for finesse playing..perfecto. great clip !

[@silvioschurig749]

Try one of Rick Toones trems

[@tedmich]

Leo envisioned the original Fender "trem" being used to reproduce slide guitar. Few use it that way, but Michael Lee Firkins is a notable expert. $310 USD seems a bit steep...

[@bobowrathsovine.]

But why doesn't the high E, B, and G strings still get caught up in the nut going sharp outa tune the way non locking tems always do when you whale on them?

[@reno145]

Because the nut is properly cut.

[@97warlock]

sounds nice for less radical trem usage. I have an Edge Zero II that has blown me away for years. literally. maybe just a fluke, but I have never in my life has a tremolo be THIS stable, ever. tried real Floyd roses Spyders, even the one kERRY KING supposedly uses on a guitart Neil Moser sold to me & NO tremolo opn the planet has been as reliable for abusive radical or mild usage as my Edge Pro II . Im confident Ed or Dime would be impressed with it

[@joehitz5613]

Eddie, Dweezil, and Jerry Cantrell the drop d gods

[@JoeR203]

I remember Darrell Braun doing a review on the Vega a few years ago. He seemed to like it. Too pricey for me though. I stick my the Gotoh GE1996T.

[@MKRISING75]

I have that comic book plus the Sammy Hagar one 🤟🏻

[@heyjarrod]

Funny, because I saw him playing guitar earlier in the year at NAMM. 😅

[@rowemo]

Djweezle Zappa

[@TestarossaRocks]

When’s the new trans trem dropping?!?

[@MastersofShred]

Supposedly soon! I need to find out more and get back to you on that 😬👍🎸

[@TestarossaRocks]

@@MastersofShred please do

[@heyjarrod]

So, it’s basically the same as a Strat style trem. 😝🤘🏻🎸

[@hotblackdesiato3451]

Shoogagoogagunga? Noooo, dude! Don't say that!!!!!!!! Confessions is a brilliant album with so many great solos on it.

[@cdnpunk2270]

If they change the arm to be more like a gotoh bridge then maybe I'll set my guitars up with it. For now the huge FR one is fucked. v2 maybe.

[@batmandeltaforce]

With it loose, when you bend a string it alters the pitch or other strings too much. I do the opposite, I have LOTS of springs, to make it tighter:)

[@Money.Rocks.Podcast]

I have MGWTYM, bought it in ´89. It is a veritable 80s teenage shred-fest and I will go as far as saying this: along with Vito Bratta, Dweezil was THE guy doing taps who was ahead of everybody. He came up with some FUCKIN COOL tapped runs and textures, VERY Van Halen-esque. In fact, Dweezil was my pick for the Hagar-Anthony tribute (no disrespect to the mighty Satch)

[@GeorgesCousinMyDude]

Steaze of the Dweaze.

[@jeffreyhobbs8603]

I bought a wolfgang special (named it Valerie) along with a 5150 iconic. Played it once plugged in. Sat it down out of respect and haven't touched it since

[@bop-g7602]

I am 52 and have played since 1986 but starting in October 2020 I made the gial to play and get faster every single day for four years. I did it. Dweez man give that sucke 6. months undivided and I am sure people will totally shit themselves.

[@senrabnad]

Brad Paisley is my favorite guitar player!!

[@jollyvoqar195]

I get kind of wonky if I go a day without playing guitar. Going years without is unthinkable.

[@benmurphy7654]

Baritone guitars existed before the transtrem didn't they?

[@neakapla]

A master like him goes months, years without playing?!? 🤯

[@ChrisTompkins-Music-And-Gear]

"The best trem in the world". ~Me.

[@erikavery1105]

Even my PRS Trem doesn't do That! 😲😲😲

Somebody's been listening to Scott Henderson.

[@Swanlord05]

Dweezil..... LETS TALK ABOUT IT

[@warthogA10]

"touch this.." .. wiggle wiggle, oh dude that's NICE! "now try the trem" 😏

[@burresseffects]

Great product but good luck getting any support from VT if you lose a screw or something.

[@R0BL68]

Black Sabbath was recording and performing in drop tunings long before it became a conventional.

[@mikebeaulieu3620]

Vega Trem stays in tune great but it's definitely a tone changer vs a stock stratocaster tremolo. For me the stock stratocaster tremolo sounds much better and the Vega Trem is very scooped sounding and leaves a big hole in the midrange.. so in my case I wasn't willing to sacrifice my tone for a trem that stays in tune a little better than my stock trem.. so if you have a guitar with too much midrange, then the Vega Trem may balance your guitar out.. for me, no thanks..

[@matthewotremba9230]

Touch that bar , oooh that is nice Haaaaaaaacoughcough Haaaaaaaacoughcough Haaaaaaaacoughcough

[@cooljp1531]

Why would you sell a Steinberger? Possibly the best guitars ever made. Even without the TransTrem. Technically not sure what he did was drop tuning, because everything goes down to B, your standard E chord becomes the B chord

[@sunnibird]

I don't understand not playing at all for that length of time.

[@toneconsultant]

It's the same video 7 times over and over. Why do that?

[@andyhayes7828]

It's sort of based on a knife edged pivot point, sort of like an '80's era Schecter Tremlok. For non trem playing it doesnt have the best tone imo.

[@NirvanaFan83]

I prefer to just slightly bend the neck to get that vibrato, if it aint broke dont fix it!

[@RobOwenMusician]

Ain't no one got time for doing that shit. Bend the neck? what are you playing, some lame bullshit? Probably.

[@PMofKhanadah]

It's a Vibrato ! Not a tremolo!! Get it right! Expert.

[@st.fiacre6685]

Is this how Dweezil rebels from the norm, by trying to sound like Robin Trower ? edgy. lol. That will separate you from the pack.

[@cloudmeinhold]

If you close your eyes it sounds like he's using a slide as well 🤔

[@jfo3000]

Yes, that's difficult to whammy like a slide.
