has edge ever used a whammy bar?

[europop2005]

in all the years i've watched Edge i've never seen a whammy bar on any guitar, does he have a way of his own?

 

[tpsreports2424]

I have and he used to put it on for Desire on the Zoo Tv tours..atleast some of them...

and Ive seen him actually put it on this year too...have no pics sorry though..

He has use it on Streets and WOWY.

 

[craigp]

he uses it on please, gloria and bullet on r&h (where bono shines the floodlight on him)
i always thought that bit in streets was a stompbox could be wrong, iv just never really seen him use the bar in that bit

in streets it's definitely a whammy bar. didn't he use it for The Fly on the ZooTV dvd?

I'm pretty sure he uses one on the EBTTRT intro. I use it as well when playing it and looking at video's of it, he's not moving his hand.

I think you are mixing up a Digitech Whammy pedal with a whammy bar. No whammy bar on Even Better.

EDIT: Yep, I had the wrong thing in mind. I was not aware for this name of it, as I usually call it tremolo bar/arm.

In that case, I only know that he uses it on WOWY, as seen on the Joshua Tree DVD.

I have seen it used too much, but I have seen Adam use it on 40.

He doesn't use it on Streets. I saw the vid of him playing Streets with the Music Rising Les Paul which doesn't have a whammy bar and he still got the sound.

 

[tpsreports2424]

^Hmm, because im positive i've seen him use it in streets...

 

[Galeongirl]

He did use it in streets, I've seen him using it.... and that he got that sound during streets in Cannes might be because there was a mixing desk with effects next to larry and someone playing on it...
I'll see if there's a vid on youtube where you can see he uses the bar...

Bullet for sure

 

[Barkeeper]

Ok, I was partially wrong. ^^ Guess he got a tremolo pedal as well then. Yesterday was the only time he did not play streets on a strat, right?
