Bigsby

Post by brian »

Does anyone know the difference between the bigsby B5 and B50 ? From their website I can see only a difference in the lettering at the bottom. The descriptions don't seem to indicate any difference. Are they from a different time period or am I missing something ?

Would that then be a more accurate version of the one used on Lennon's 325 ?

No, the more accurate version of the Bigsby on Lennon's 325 is the B5.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
