using a whammy bar is way better than using a slide... no detuning and better control. the only reason i'd still use a slide is cuz different types of slides have different tonal properties (like copper, glass) regardless,you that is a sick technique. sweet video
it's totally different than using a slide, which you should have pointed out if you can notice the differences in tonal properties of materials slides are made from. ask any slide player if using a whammy is better than using a slide. anybody who uses a whammy instead probably decided they wanted to find a way to do it without one.
He does what he can with what talent he has.

that whammy technique is so awesome! He's the only one who does that, which makes it that much better.

if he really wants to have a slide type sound he should use a slide instead of the whammy bar, although it still is a tight technique.

Wouldn't mind if he let go of the whammy bar for a couple of seconds, though.
