Learn killer tremelo bar techniques with Michael Casswell This superb DVD will teach you how to get the best from the tremelo system on your guitar! Lessons range from basic tips to wild whammy bar techniques! Learn to imitate a slide guitar, Jeff Beck style harmonic pitch changes, vibrato. It is with great sadness that we report that talented guitarist Michael Casswell passed away last week in a swimming pool accident. Mike played guitar on tour in Brian May's first post Queen solo band and in the studio on Cozy Powell's 'Especially For You' solo album, which he also co-wrote.

I traded a music man Luke for a Boogie Duel Rec with him in 2009. He come over to my house to collect and show me how good my gear can sound!!!0<=' span='>0='>='> - Sad. A great player and a great teacher - a rare combination.0<=' span='>1='>='>

- Only just watched a couple of his videos this weekend. The latest being him reviewing his own new 'valley arts' guitar. You could tell he was as happy as to play that thing! A sad loss.0<=' span='>1='>='>

- WTF? Seen him play dozens of times in one of the local covers bands around here. Incredible player.
Crap news.0<=' span='>0='>='> - That's really sad. He came across really well in interviews and demos. Jeff Beck-ian whammy action if I recall. RIP0<=' span='>0='>='>

- edited October 2016That's really sad.
In the last 2 months I'd had some FB chats & PMs with him about setting up guitars, trems etc and he'd been really helpful and passed on details of his repairer and supplier of materials.
Seemed like a really good, kind guy and of course, a wonderful player. No one did Beck or Lukather better and it had become a part of his style and sound.
R.I.P. and this seems fitting and it's Mike playingwww.cairoeast.co.uk - Madness Tribute band (Bass Player) and guitarist elsewhere

- Really sad. I met him briefly a month or two ago as I think he was about to start teaching at ICMP. He was being shown around and walked in on one of my band rehearsals. Seemed like a lovely bloke.- 'I'm going to write a very stiff letter. A VERY stiff letter. On cardboard.'0<=' span='>0='>='>
- Really shocked to read this to be honest with you. That's very sad news. RIP.0<=' span='>0='>='>

- Very sad indeed, I'm truly shocked, what a player he was, far too young as well.0<=' span='>0='>='>
- so if you fancy a reissue of a guitar they never made in a colour they never used then it probably isn't too overpriced.0<=' span='>0='>='>
- This is the hardest announcement we have ever had to make……….…We are stunned and shocked to announce the death of our band mate and long-time friend, Michael Casswell. Michael died in tragic circumstances on Friday whilst on holiday in Spain. We cannot find the words to describe how we are feeling at this extremely painful time. Michael was an absolutely gifted guitarist and we will miss him enormously as will his fans and followers too. We send our love and sympathy to his family and friends.0<=' span='>0='>='>

- Very sad. Played in the Brian May Band in the early 90's.0<=' span='>0='>='>
- wow. Tragic news, such a talented bloke and a great teacher. RIP.0<=' span='>0='>='>
- tFB TraderSo sad . Was a really nice guy. Didn't know him well other than via his videos but was always cool when I was doing 'guest lectures' at ACM on guitar maintenanceMany guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.
