I would agree with that too. They look cool, but I didn't like the one I had.

Paul Bigsby started building solid body electric guitars in the 40's but didn't patent the "Bigsby" vibrato until 1952.

Why would anyone make a bigsby guitar without a bigsby?

And WHY do Fender let this young upstart get away with that headstock?

Is this the Broadcaster guitar?

About the headstock..Fender didn't own it. It's a R for Romero guitars. The only reason i know is because Mr. Romero's son,Ronnie, does all my work and owns a guitar shop here where i live. Leo asked him if he minded if he used the R headstock and Mr. Romero said not at all. The Romero's also did a guitar that looks just like a jaguar/jazzmaster before Fender did. I have some pics somewhere if anybody wants to see it. As a side note my friend Ronnie hates fenders. I'll bring my Les Paul in there and they love it but if i bring one of my fenders then it's like no big deal..Ha!
