Parabar Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Here's a pic of the Bigsby B700 I put on my Riff 345 copy (built in some of the the same Korean plants as the Dots). Same installation as on the Dot --- no problems, and a very nice mod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwillow777 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 My Dot with a B70. It works great. I also installed a roller bridge and I have NO tuning problems. Fairly easy installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpaulgeorge Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Have you thought about trying one of these : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120284666377&ssPageName=MERC_VI_RSCC_Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT&refitem=120284065518&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=active_view_item&usedrule1=StoreCatToStoreCat&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget&_trksid=p284.m184&_trkparms=algo%3DDR%26its%3DS%252BI%252BSS%26itu%3DISS%252BUCI%252BSI%26otn%3D4 a bit dearer than bigsby on it's own, but no need to drill any holes & its reversable if you don't like it.

Funkwire Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 My Dot with a B70. It works great. I also installed a roller bridge and I have NO tuning problems. Fairly easy installation. jcwillow--it's been said before, but that 'CUSTOM MADE' plaque is really sweet. Looks good and a great way to cover up the stop bar threads!

OutoftheBlues Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 Thanks all, I purchased a B70 and now I'm mulling over whether to install it on my Natural Sheraton or my Cherry Red Flame Top Dot. Maybe the sheri because it plays better than the dot - the neck on the sherri is not as fat as the dot, which I prefer. We'll see, I've got a gig this weekend and I'll use the Dot - then I'll decide.
