A tremolo assembly is implemented for modulating the string tension on a guitar by mounting a bridge carrier on a sliding mount with the fore and aft displacement thereof effected by a transverse cam implemented fulcrum piece opposing the string tension. The sliding mount limits the bridge translation to the string plane, thus resolving all bending and lateral string forced. A forwardly and rearwardly aligned set of manual levers is then useful in modulating downward and upward the tension of the strings in unison against a set of bias springs.
