Bigsby Protocol

What's Hot
ROOGROOG Frets: 562
in Off Topic

Can we agree that those who suggest that; "it needs a bigsby" are no better than those who "dis a guitar" because it has one?

Discussion and general bun fight invited.

    No.

    Because they are the war crime of guitar hardware.

    I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd

    I thought "It needs a Bigsby" was generally said in jest, knowing that many here dislike them?

    both correct

    If it moves, salute it.
    If it doesn't move, move it.
    If you can't move it, fit a Bigsby to it.

    Once again it falls on me to be the voice of reason and common sense on this forum. Bigsbys are ace. They look ace, they sound ace. They are ace. Every guitar should have one.


    Give me a semi-hollow with a B7 over a 20min lock-in with the Miss World finalists any day. Yes siree.

    Bigsbys are daft. Outdated and hard to keep in tune. Only ever look right on Gretche guitars anyway.
