String-through Bigsby
Posted: Mon Jan 18, 2016 8:57 pm
Hello again after a long absence. Thought this might be of interest.
Just noticed that another one of Paul Yandell's ideas has been adopted by Bigsby/Gretsch- the string-through Bigsby. (Although the link doesn't mention Paul by name.) I know several of you have customized your Bigsby in this way because of Paul's suggestion. Hopefully they'll credit him in future copy.
"In a uniquely Gretsch touch, the Bigsby tailpiece is now string-through, making it quicker (and easier) to change strings as well as providing increased vibration transfer for enhanced sustain."
