Well, that matters. If it's an acoustic guitar, and no sound comes out, that could never happen. But if it's an electric guitar you're talking about,either the amps not on, the volume is not up on the guitar or amp, or the cord that leads from the amp to the guitar input jack is bad. You should be able to hear a slight noise from an electric guitar even with the amp malfunctioning or switched off, since the strings do make slight vibrations in airspace anyway. Perhaps they have their hand or arm muting the strings?

Whammy bar/tremelo arm.
yes A tremolo arm, tremolo bar, whammy bar or wang bar is a lever attached to the bridge and/or the tailpiece of an electric guitar or archtop guitar to enable the player to quickly vary the tension and sometimes the length of the strings temporarily, changing the pitch to create a vibrato, portamento or pitch bend effect. Instruments without this device are called hard-tail. The term vibrola is also used by some guitar makers to describe their particular tremolo arm designs.
