Informal term for a tremolo bar for an electric guitar. There's alot of cool tricks you can do with them. My personal favourite is the Dimebag Whammy squeal where basically you pluck an open strick then you catch the harmonic and pull up on the tremolo bar. It's also a common technique in death metal to make the music more haunting.
