Lol.
There's no U in forward was how I was taught to remember that one. Language is weird.

Does anyone know the answer to the questions I posted?
Corrected the Spelling..tequila_in_teacups wrote: ↑Fri Jan 27, 2023 1:41 pmBut is usage not the arbiter of a word's meaning? If enough people agree that the word 'tremolo' (or tremelo, as the op insists on spelling it) refers to a vibrato unit, then that's what it means.
I don't entirely agree with the above, btw, just playing devil's advocate.
I’m in the market for a new 2023 Fender Strat. I’m open to a USA, MIJ or MIM..tequila_in_teacups wrote: ↑Fri Jan 27, 2023 9:07 pmLarsongs wrote: ↑Fri Jan 27, 2023 8:59 pmVibrato, Tremolo, Whammy Bar, Wiggle Stick, etc., etc., etc. I think you all know what I’m referring to.

These are on 2023 Strat’s.. So it appears USA Vibratos are used on MIM..Futuron wrote: ↑Fri Jan 27, 2023 11:02 pmThey're basically the same right across the board (the Fender ones), but with slight differences. Some have the vintage style bent saddles, some (too few) have the modern block saddles. Some have the vintage style 6 screws, but most have the modern 2-point pivot. Most have the screw-in arm, some have the pop-in arm (with or without plastic tip). As I said, they aren't much different functionally if it's at all noticeable to you, the main difference is their appearance. (Maybe the block can vary a bit? It definitely does on 3rd party units.)
A quick run-down of the main current modern models:
American Ultra has 2-point, blocks & pop-in without tip.
American Professional has 2-point, bent saddles & pop-in with tip.
American Performer has 6-screw, bent saddles & screw-in with tip.
Player Plus has 2-point, blocks, (not sure how that arm goes in) with tip.
Player has 2-point, bent saddles, screw-in with tip.
Japanese series are all over the place and I don't know what's what, but my Hybrid is 2-point, bent, screw-in with tip.
