However, the term "trem" or "tremolo" is still used to refer to a bridge system built for a whammy bar, or the bar itself. This non-standard use of the term "tremolo" refers to pitch rather than amplitude. Some electric guitars use a (misnamed) lever called a "tremolo arm" or " whammy bar" that allows a performer to lower or (usually, to some extent) raise the pitch of a note or chord, an effect properly termed vibrato or "pitch bend".
