blueox Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Well, I was with you until the Bigsby on the Johnny Smith! Is nothing sacred? While not for me, because of the influence of Chet Atkins and others, it seems that many guitarists of the country and rockabilly genres have to have a Bigsby on any guitar that they play. "To each his own."
Hfan Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Thanks Fred, that was cool. And it was written by Bob Weir!
Baldeagle Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Fred, thanks very much for posting the story. It was extremely fascinating to read some of the history of the company.

"To each his own." I was kidding, of course. A person can do whatever he wants with his property. I do think it's very weird to put a Bigsby on a tap tuned guitar. That's what 175s were for!
