Zork Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'm thinking of installing a Bigsby on my Dot. Any experience with Bigsby B5 vs. WD Bigsby B5? The WD is a licensed product but $60-70 less. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianh Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'm thinking of installing a Bigsby on my Dot. Any experience with Bigsby B5 vs. WD Bigsby B5? The WD is a licensed product but $60-70 less. Thanks. It looks to be the same as a Bigsby B50. The B50 is the milled offshore version, the B5 is cast USA made. If that's the case, there is very little difference in action, but the "authenticity" bug might get you. (I have a B7 and B70, same deal.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Helliday Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Don't get a B50 get a B3, B6 or B7 in licensed thats B30, B60, B70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zork Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 I was intending on using a Vibramate V5 with the B5. Just want to make sure the licensed ones are the same specs... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Helliday Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I feel you musikron Zork you should just bust out the drill bits and buy the B7 or B6 on there. once again there aint to garuntees with the B5 or that the spacing is the same between the tuneamatic and stopbar on a Les Paul as a Epi Dot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
