I used my newly Hantug Titanium tremolo equipped guitar for the 1rst time today & must say it's a great pleasure & joyful experience. My Warmoth guitar never sounded so good as it does now ! With the previous original Floyd Rose, I noticed some flaws in the sound of my guitar : weak-sounding high E string, uneven register or some dead sounding notes (like on some cellos or acoustic basses, we say there are "wolves" in the instrument). Well, the Titanium miraculously solve those problems. It naturally "equalized" my instrument & brought it to a great timbral & frequency balance. Moreover, the sound changed for the better : there is an obvious gain in clarity (between strings & between notes) & sustain, long notes really sing ! I noticed also a beautiful & subtle resonance in high harmonic register, which you comes into life especially with highly distorted tones. It gives like an harmonic shadow soaring over the note, emphasizing its singing quality. On top of all, I'd add that the action of the tremolo is super smooth & responsive, more than the usual Floyd Rose.

Excellent. Love the guitar, and the sound really exemplifies what the Axe FX can sound like in good hands with a fine instrument.
 
That was really impressive and interesting. You have a unique style that I very much enjoy. Thanks for posting.
 
What kind of vibrato bar is that??? A fan of Nguyen as well. Beautiful guitar and amazing player

This is a special Titanium bar I asked Hantug to create for me. The idea is to be able to use it in both directions & do inverted pitch bends, especially attacking the note with an upbend. It's very interesting to use, but needs some practice. I'm not sure I will use it onstage, it's not very convenient sometimes. It's fine as long you have it in your hand & is horizontal. But you can't leave it resting in a falling down vertical position, because the other part of the bar gets on the way of right hand.

Thanks you all for the likes ! I should do more videos ; = )
