Want To Replace The Bigsby On My 325 With A Tailpiece

Hi all -

I'm considering replacing the Bigsby unit on my 325V59 with a non-vibrato tail piece.

But before I do, I'd like to know which Rick tailpiece would be the best fit and most stable for this guitar. Any thoughts?

Regards

Nick

NickD: It comes down to aesthetics and functionality I guess. The "R" would look nice on the 325V59, but my preference would be for the trapeze tailpiece as it gives the guitar an older look historically and I find it to be somewhat more stable. You can install either yourself but you will have holes showing from the Bigsby.
