Bo, I thought when referring to "trem-picking", we were talking about the style
used by Hank Marvin (holding the tremelo arm or "bar", and picking the notes
individually). Maybe I am the one who had too much eggnog, but I thought the
style used in Miserlou was called "double-picking". Please straighten me out!
Best regards, Dana Vincent

Dana,
Maybe I'm still under the influence of some potent eggnog but when you
say "the bar" I assume you mean the tremolo arm, is that correct?
Would this mean that you use the trem arm to help with the double
picking?

For me, I use two methods. First one is resting my palm on the
bridge, and reaching out with my middle finger to manipulate the bar
(only works to flatten the notes, but that is all I have my guitar set
up to do, anyway). Second one is holding the pick with thumb and
index finger, and gripping the bar with the remaining fingers (I have
the springs adjusted very tightly, and the bar is bent to be closer to
the strings). Like I say, there appear to be many different styles,
and this is what works for me! By the way, Happy Holidays to all!
