Westly West Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Hello to all, this is my first post! I was wondering if I can or if anyone has mounted a Bigsby (or an other brand) vibrato arm on a Epi es-175? Can it be done? Tips? Suggestions? Thanks Westly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrasso Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Welcome to the forum. Great group of knowledgeable people here. I dont have an answer, but I'm sure it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayyj Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Yes, you sure can - the B6 is ideal and requires minimal work to fit, although the B3 and B11 both will work fine as well. If you try it and don't like it the trapeze will cover the evidence so it's pretty much reversable. If you try searching Google Images for "Gibson ES-175 Bigsby" it will bring up loads of examples. It should go without saying, be sure to post photos if you decide to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westly West Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 Thanks! I'll check it out. I have a Gretsch and I think it has the B6 too standard. I may have to change the bridge too. I think... I'll definitely post when I'm finished! W.W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
