Members JonnyFranchi$e Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 No. Would not. I think it would look goofy on that beautiful guitar - just MO. What kind of guitar is that? I have a Yamaha AES 620 with a string-through design like that - fantastic. PEACE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members yorgatron Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 NO!because I happen to own a Gibson L-6 Deluxe,and I installed a Bigsby like that on mine,and it was too close to the bridge,so I cut it up to move it back.of course,that was years ago,when neither Bigsby's or L-6s had any value.I'm about to reassemble the poor thing so I can use it in the cover band I just joined.

I butchered it.hey,I was young and stupid,and I got it for cheap.if you want to run that Bigsby you'll need a different bridge,the one that's on there is too fat,and the strings will rub on it.use a regular tune-o-matic;or.better yet,a roller tune-o-matic;the Vibramate is for guitars that have a stop tail piece,so you will have to drill a couple of small holes for the screws.http://www.vibramate.com/vibramate-v5-install.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sfarfsky Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 I wouldn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GuitarSlim101 Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 I would, but I've Bigsby'd just about all of my electrics. I'm addicted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gonkboy Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 I wouldn't. The guitar is designed to be thru body strung and should be left that way. I would wait and put a bigsby on a more suitable guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
