Description

Everything you need to fit a Bigsby True Vibrato to your Flat Top Solid Body Style Guitar. The Bigsby B5 fits the SGand Les PaulJr and other similar Models. Kit includes: Bigsby Tailpiece, screws, tension spring, plastic washer, alignment string, and installation Instructions.

Los Angeles. Late 1940s. A love of motorcycles brings together genius engineer Paul Bigsby and music legend Merle Travis. Their friendship inspired Paul to create the first Bigsby True Vibrato Tailpiece. He went on to design a series of Vibratos that rocked the music world. Still the original. Hand Crafted. Sand Cast. Hand Polished. The same way Paul did.

SGand Les PaulJr are Trademarks of Gibson Guitar Corp., which is not associated with Bigsby.

    The Bigsby B-5 is the best quality and has been around for a long time. The B-5 is for "flat top" guitars but they make them for "Arch top" as well. They are well made and work really smooth when installed properly. They are pretty much built "Bulletproof" and can handle a lot of abuse! They have a "Classic" look as well as being tuff.

  • Perfect

    Put it on my Gibson SG Standard. Work great and adds to my recordings flawlessly. I have Bigsbys on all my guitars and they all perform as designed.

  • I would buy this again.

    Great product for my telecaster. It fit perfectly on my vibramate mount. It made my tele sound better. I recommend getting one.
