its98tonight Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Bigsby B7 tremolos are tough to get at the moment. I did manage to find a new one in the aluminum finish from a seller on reverb for just over $170 but the photos were stock images. In the image, the Patent information was not painted over. On other sites, such as Guitar Center and Musician’s Friend, Bigsby B7 tremolos are back ordered, listed for $225+ and their stock photos show the Patent information covered in black paint. Again, my question is only in regards to the non-gold finished B7 tremolos and whether black paint covering or not covering the Patent information signifies anything. I’ve included links below, for your perusal.

Bronx Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Just guessing but maybe that just the difference between the aluminum and chrome finish versions. I have an older B7 Nickel that has the pained patent numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihcmac Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Bigsby does have black ones as the Vox Bobcat V90 has one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
