  • can you tell me wich amp you use?

  • Vox AD30VT

  • very cool guitar im waiting on one in the mail coming from the uk hope its playable . i dont think it has a scratch plate! how do you find the bigsby for keeping in tune?

  • The bigsby is fine if you're easy with it. If you're tuners are in good shape then there's not much hassle. My one needs a little bit of work (tuners are not in the best shape, re-frets required, action, a bit of oiling up a set of new strings). I'm lucky all the original electrics work. Many took the scratchplate off as it can get in the way - depends on your playing style. At least it exposes the stunning cream-bound f-holes! Beautiful guitars. Get a vid up when it arrives!

  • that' s a sound man, cheers from Belgium

  • Art guitar.

  • this is some good blues, not a big dan of the usual blues, but this is the shit (Y)

  • Are you playing with bare hand? without a pick? Amazing!

  • Wow, I’ve got an identical guitar complete with a Bigsby which I bought S/H around 1968 for £18, which was a lot of money back then. I’ve never was able to make it sound like that though. In fact I’ve not touched it at all for at least 20 years. Wonder what it’s worth now?

  • how well do the beatles sound through it?

  • Those new Hofner pick-ups sound great !

  • very nice tone..!!

  • Nice sound you got there punk..... Stick to the blues Riff's!!!!

  • I have added the video to my favorites and keep coming back to listen to some blues.

    Not to mention the fabulous warm tone. Thumbs totally up. : )
