BIGSBY B5 Vibrato TAILPIECE STRING-THRU Polished Aluminum -NEW

A Bigsby® equipped guitar will give you the expressive, fluid sound that only a true Bigsby vibrato can produce. The go-to choice for guitar players looking for unparalleled performance and vintage style, a Bigsby vibrato delivers smooth and accurate pitch changes, allowing you to create subtle vibrato effects. Its classic look and easy installation make it a popular choice for both guitarists and luthiers alike. Discover the Bigsby sound and take your playing to the next level.

The B5™, sometimes referred as the Bigsby "horseshoe" is designed for flat top solid body guitars and features a tension bar to increase the break angle over the bridge. The "string-thru" B5 is a pinless design that makes string changes a breeze because it eliminates the need to insert the ball-end of the string through the post on the string bar. Attaching via four screws to a guitar's top, the B5 is extremely versatile. B5s are common on many styles of guitars including Gibson SG™, Les Paul™ Special, Rickenbacker® 325, and Fender Telecaster®.
