Artist:TC Electronic RH450 bass system | | Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Fort Madison, IA | | | Jon Sauter-(played bass with Ted Nugent) was the first guy I saw with one. He had a modified strat whammy (with screen-door spings) on his Tele-basses. This was in the early or mid 70's. |

| | | | I have a bass with one but I don't use it much anymore. The bass it's on is pretty heavy. One very useful thing I've found for it is to do psuedo-fretless. I got the idea to do that from a guitarist who used a whammy bar to simulate slide guitar. It wouldn't fool Steve Bailey but it works. |
