It is a term in music, this answer shall be here until I know the answer.

Please stand by.

Tremolo is a term describing a rapidly varying pitch of a single note. It might be compared to a warbling sound but not as strong.

Tremolo in music refers to a rapid repetition of a single note or alternation between two notes, creating a trembling or wavering effect. It can be produced by quickly alternating the bow on a string instrument, rapidly pressing and releasing a key on a piano or keyboard, or using a tremolo arm on a guitar.

What is a tremolo on a guitar?

that depends on wat u mean. there is an effect pedal called tremolo, a type of bend called tremolo, and a part that goes on your guitar. You probably mean what is usually called the 'tremolo' floating bridge on a guitar. This is actually a misnomer since tremolo means 'rapid change in tone or volume/amplitude'. What a floating bridge actually does is allows the player to change the pitch of a note or set of notes in much the same way you would with a bend. Changing pitch rapidly in this manner is actually called vibrato, not tremolo. The tremolo effects pedal actually varies the amplitude so as to give the impression that the note is not decaying as fast. Interestingly enough, there are a number of vintage 'vibrato' amplifiers that actually employ a tremolo device. This is why engineers should ask musicians to name their musical inventions lol.

Difference between tremolo arm and Floyd rose tremolo?

A tremolo arm is what allows one to use a tremolo. A tremolo is a mechanism in a stringed instrument that allows changing the pitch of all the strings simultaneously. The major drawback of a tremolo is that large amounts of use will stretch the strings and throw the instrument out of tune, requiring the player to have to continually retune the instrument. The idea behind the Floyd Rose brand tremolo is to alleviate this problem by locking the strings at both the nut and the bridge.

Do the fender 1962 reissue strats have specific tremolo bars or are tremolo bars all standard?

there is no specific tremolo bar for the 62 reissue but you have to get an bar for an American strat...which are a little skinnier than others. I thought that all of the bars fit for all strats but I was trying to squeeze in a Korean tremolo bar in my 62RI and I almost broke it. So just as long as you get a tremolo bar for an American strat you should be fine. Enjoy...
