Im bidding for one of these and would desperately like to know...
a) can i fix on a bigsby B5 Vibrato arm? Is it easy?
Is it a good guitar? i wanted one just like John lennons and this is the cheapest one i've seen that looks like his but i wanted the vibrato arm for it. Plus does the vibrato arm also have the bridge etc ie once its on i can put the strings through and its already to go?
Help me please!

A 350 is a full scale version of the Lennoneque style guitar
As a tool goes (and this is only my opinion and not that of a lot of people) it is far superior to the 325.Had it been available to John Lennon in 1959,he would have purchased that guitar .
Now the collectors may flame away at me ,but look at what he played AFTER he stopped using the 325 publicly.
Can the Bigsby fit...yes
Do you want the same style Bigsby saddle/bridge as Lennon? It is being copied by "Jetglo" and is pricey.At http://www.voxtalks.com I spoke about authenticity VS intonation ...I stand with intonation first.It is a tool .Intonation was not available on JL's guitar ...yet ALL his post model guitars did have that feature.Did it make a difference to him........I bet it did.How did it work....he had no clue .JL was not a technical guy .He just wanted to make it happen.PERIOD.
See Peter's guitar ....pretty cool if you ask me.

So you too want yours "ALAPWOB"?!?!
No he did not post one .But with the other guitar ...what was it a 381? that you made the guard for (that looooooked awesome) I can imagine what the 350 looks like in gold .
I was only implying what Peters guitar looks like in general .....that's all .It is a 350 -correct?
It is modified from factory stock -correct?
It is not hacked and could be returned if he wanted to -correct?
It is an option the "we" think should/could be available from the factory-correct?
That is all ....Don are you there?Helllllloooooo???!?!?!?!?1?!?1?!?
