burchster Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Here she is with a new pickguard from C Rocker guitars! I'm still throwing around the idea of putting a frequensator on it.. depends on how drilling will need done I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPS1976 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 very nice! congrats! if you do decide to go with the Frequensator, you will have to drill some new holes but you wont be able to see the others so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burchster Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 A bigsby would look nice but I'm leaning toward the frequensator. I love the look of that tail piece! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis G Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Oh I dunno... I think it's crying for a bigsby,, can't you hear it???? Agreed, but I'm biased   Either way you go, congrats on a great guitar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweed2 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Nice looking guitar. I had two guitars with frequensators, a Zephyr Blues Deluxe and 50 Anniversary RI Sheraton. I too, like the looks of them, but I don't think they function any better than a regular trapeze tailpiece. In my experience, I think that they actually lose sustain, from lack of mass maybe? They can be a little more hassle to restring, too. I sold the one on my Sheraton and replaced it with a Lyre-type vibrato. An improvement in both looks and sustain. Now, I'm considering replacing the tailpiece on the ZBD, with a solid brass one, with some mass. All this after I created longer bass bales to make string length a non-issue. I'll keep the freak, so that if, and when I sell the guitar, the next guy can make the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
