Members Armchair Bronco Posted March 16, 2010 Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 It's my birthday on Friday, March 19th. So to celebrate, I just bought myself a Bigsby B5 + Vibramate. With luck, it'll be here by Friday. I got the short Vibramate that's fitted for Gibson SG's 'cause that's what this baby is getting mouted to -- my SG Classic! With My SG Classic, Bigsby B5 tremolo, and Ampeg Gemini I combo, I've managed to track down the main hardware components used by my guitar hero Greg Sage of The Wipers! (...well, everything except for a vintage Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face and an old EchoPlex tape unit...) Woo hoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sxyryan Posted March 16, 2010 Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 Be careful! There are two different length screws on the vibramate, the ones that bolt to the bigsby. Get them in the right holes. One pair is just slightly long enough to mar the finish a bit. Congrats though! I love mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Armchair Bronco Posted March 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 Heh. Honey, Hole and Nirvana opening for the Wipers. Good times My 11-year-old son is learning The Wipers "Over the Edge" for his school's talent show. Tonight, he decided to do Hole's version of the song because it's shorter and has the guitar solo "Up Front". This Wipers tribute album, btw, is awesome. I was listening to it in my car today. Lots of really good covers of classic Wipers tunes. [YOUTUBE]fmnjKpe848Y[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
