elantric Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I'll have to raid my parts bins - I may have a few of those I collected over the years from Bigsby installs and owners did not care to claim the old parts back in the 70s-80s I wonder what a set of strings from 1959 would bring?

modoc_333 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Oh please this mojo 5hit has got to stop. There is nothing special about that item. My studio has one also' date=' looks exactly the same. So what if it came off a 59, how do you prove it? Word of mouth? COA, nope.... There is no way to prove it and if someone actually buys that thing I have some slightly flooded land in the less developed areas of Mississippi (read and swamp) that I would love to sell them.[/quote'] actually... you're wrong. this one is made out of a different material than yours an weighs much less... thus affeting the sound. but that's not even the real point. people buy these to put back onto a real late 50s guitar to make it complete after some alteration. if you have a guitar that's worth 5 or 6 digits and the only thing it needs to be complete is the right tailpiece then it's worth it.... especially when it comes time to sell. as for proving it? that's pretty easy too.... material, shape, tooling marks, etc. as for that particular one, i'm not sure it is from '59 and this sort of thing should be bought in person so it can be inspected.

littlekenny Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 What's rediculous is that people are so anal about making their guitars "vintage correct" that they go and spend thousands on vintage and reproduction parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundergod Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I was going to buy 5 of them (I was going to install them even on my strat so it would have that vintage lester tone) but they had only one and I thought if I had only one I would never use the other guitars again... so I passed.
