Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: Trem Picking Technique Tips

mctippens - 26 Dec 2001 23:00:37

I've always thought of tremelo picking as the Dick Dale style of picking used
in Miserlou.
The confusion is all Fender's fault. Their "tremelo" bar should really have
been called a vibrato bar. And what Hank Marvin does should be called
"vibrato picking".
Marty
<<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
