The Breeze Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Im new to the site and I was wondering where I could find a lyre whammy bar system for my Flying V? Any help is much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BentonC Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Allparts.com offers a version of the Maestro Vibrola http://www.allparts.com/Tremolo-Tailpieces-s/151.htm , though you might have a difficult time finding one with the Lyre... maybe eBay?

The Breeze Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Thank You. I know I will sound stupid but can you tell me the difference between lyre and maestro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BentonC Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 The Lyre is a Maestro with the Lyre engraving on the plate/cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Breeze Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Ok thanks. Is the Allparts one the same size as a Gibson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BentonC Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I'm not sure off-hand. I'd recommend checking with the folks at AllParts on that one, but I can't imagine that it wouldn't be designed to be as much of a direct replacement as possible...

Andre S Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Ok thanks. Is the Allparts one the same size as a Gibson? Check, but I remember someone on the MyLesPaul forums said that the long version was supposed to be a direct replacement but the short version is not.

cabba2203 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 :) Will the long even fit on a Flying V? The ones I have seen were always the ones without the cover due to the body shape. Example Photo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Breeze Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 Idk bout the long ones... Maybe... "Lonnie Mack" it? Haha. The ones in the pic is the look I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
