Sparrow Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I really love my ES-137 Custom! I'm not so sure about the Varitone Switch, but that is another topic... Like I said, I love my Gibson. I really like the Bigbys as well, but not enough to violate my Gibson by drilling holes in it!! The Vibramate is a killer concept, allowing one to add a Bigsby using the existing Stop Piece mounts on the guitar. I ordered a Bigsby B7 / Vibramate combo without doing enough research as it turns out. Is the distance from the stop piece to the tail end really over two inches longer on an ES-137 as compared to a LP? Now that I have the parts here, it sure looks that way. Does anyone know which Bigsby (if any) would fit my ES-137, using the Vibramate? I'm excited about having a Bigsby, but I just can't bring myself to drilling any holes in my honey...

BigKahune Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 . Going to the Vibramate site, they recommend the V-5 for the ES-137 - http://www.vibramate.com/vibramate-model-chart.php . . .(the V-7 doesn't fit according to the chart) Which goes with the B-5 Bigsby - http://www.bigsby.com/vibe/products/vibratos/bigsby-b5/ .
