Members wedgehed II Posted March 28, 2010 Members Share Posted March 28, 2010 oh god, kill it with fire!! Just kidding. :love: My first real electric was a 70s era Gibson SG with a factory installed Bigsby. Or should I say a factory badly installed Bigsby. I can certainly understand Bigsby hate from people who have never played a properly set up one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Armchair Bronco Posted March 29, 2010 Members Share Posted March 29, 2010 SG's with Bigsby's are my prefered guitar setup for most stuff: I see you're using a Vibramate with your SG Classic (just like me). I think the Vibramate positions the Bigsby WAAYYY TOO close to the bridge. It should be pushed back at least 1.5" or more, IMO. I'm gonna stick with the Vibramate for a month or two, but if I bond with the Bigsby, I'm going to mount it directly to my SG Classic and then make some red nitro-covered mahogany discs to plug up the stoptail holes.

Members sxyryan Posted March 29, 2010 Members Share Posted March 29, 2010 ^^^ I agree. I don't have tuning issues or anything, but it's not a very comfortable spot if you actually want to use the Bigsby. Look at where it is on my Faded. That's where I found it really comfy. If you mount it permanently, hold the guitar as if you were playing it, and kind of "dry fit" the Bigsby, to see where it's most comfortable for you, then you will be as happy as possible with it.

Members wax4213 Posted March 29, 2010 Members Share Posted March 29, 2010 I love a Bigsby on an SG, I'm not sure I'd want one on many other guitars. Maybe a tele. Sxyryan, what are the pickup combinations with the 3-way switch on your 3 pickup SG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sxyryan Posted March 29, 2010 Members Share Posted March 29, 2010 The switch works like it does on any other Gibson style, up is neck, middle is both, down is bridge. It is currently wired with the middle pickup always "on". There are 3 volumes and a master tone. So I can dial the middle pickup in or out however I want.
