Hey Mark and Co,

I SWEAR I played a blue 370 once with a bigsby trem on it and since then I've been thinking about getting one for my 360wb. What kind of modification am I going to have to do? replace bridge? screw holes? I don't expect to do the work myself as I don't trust myself with tools but just want an idea of how labor/ parts intesive the job would be so i can guess at the cost.

Also, would you expect any problems to come out of this, IE playability or intonation related? I remember the other one playing great, but I don't want to put a couple screw holes in the top of an otherwise beautiful guitar if i'm not going to leave the bigsby on for the rest of its life if yaknowwhatimean.

Thanks!

Nick

I believe that you can install one ,I guess if it fits on a 325 ,then it should on a 360 ...it is a larger body and the flair of the tailpice is no doubt larger .

Have you ever used a Bigsby before?
