Okay, my first whammy bar was made of cast illuminum... i broke... i have a brass one that is bent nearly broken... what should a PROPER whammy be made of that wont break... Diamond? Tungsten Carbide? Carbon Nano-tubes? Neutron Star matter? Just a few suggestions as I have no idea - a real guess would be something springy like steel so if you do bend it a little it will retain its shape. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile
