The most glaring thing to me about JEL's playing has always been that he does not use a tremolo bar. With some types of music it's not as noticeable but with metal it's almost a necessity. He gets similar sounds by manipulating tuning keys and the strings behind the nut but to play this style of guitar well at all without a whammy is a technical achievement unto itself. Great technician, great guitar player.
