haha, I'd be surprised if they don't start breaking once the strings start to get a little more worn. I'm not expecting it too last long. Once they break I'll fix it but right now, I'm just going to see how far I can get with these strings.

does anyone know anything about bigsbys? the more I look at it, the more I think the bigsby may be a vintage piece. It is made in the US, it is A LOT nicer than the bigsby I had on the Strummer tele and it has the metal bridge that vintage bigsbys on ebay have.

Seriously, I couldn't find much info on dating bigsbys or anything but if it is vintage, I still have the original box for it. The guy who traded me for it said that he got it an old music store going out of business sale. hmmm

I must say, you've made that SX Tele look class PW. I don't like stickers on guitars but the way it fits under th bigsby is nice plus the b/g-bender is awesome.
