  1. I've seen the Gary Clark Jr video. If you pay attention, he has to tune his guitar twice. Once in the beginning, (even before the song starts and right after he uses the vibrola) and once again before one of his solos... In the end, I picked up a standard SG without vibrola... Thanks to everyone for their feedback!!!
  2. The Vibramate is an adapter that allows the Bigsby to use the pre-existing holes to be mounted to the guitar...
  3. Hi everybody, I am looking to buy a new guitar and I have been considering the 61 Gibson SG with SIDEWAYS VIBROLA and or MAESTRO VIBROLA. I do not have access to try these models because I can not find a music store in my area (small city in Europe) that has them in stock. I can only order them online from Germany or Italy and shipping back the guitar is minimum 100 Euros ~= 115 USD. I have seen some pretty bad reviews but I have never had the chance to try one myself. It has been said that the VIBROLAS work better with .10 or .11 strings... Does anyone have any experience with these things? Is one better than the other? Are they both crap? Should I just get a Bigsby? (I admit I am a little afraid of color damage to the guitar due to long term Bigsby installation...) Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.
  4. Yeah... Thanks for that... In case you don't know, shipping from the USA to the EU costs much more than the parts. Does anyone know of any good EU sites?? Thanks
  5. Hi everybody, I am looking for a good site to purchase a new Truss Rod Cover for my SG and and a new Truss Rod Cover and Pick Guard for my Firebird. Anyone know of any good EU sites? Thanks
  6. Hello, I have a question regarding the Gibson registration cards that need to be sent in 15 days after purchase... I did fill out and send my registration cards in (late by a few months). My question is this: Will Gibson send me any feedback (snail mail or email) that they have received and processed my information? Otherwise is there a way I can verify they have received and processed my information? Thanking you in advance...
