Bigsby B3G Vibrato Tailpiece Gold

Gold Bigsby B3 for Softer Thin Archtop Vibrato Feel

The Bigsby B3G Vibrato Tailpiece in Gold is a genuine Bigsby vibrato made for compatible thin archtop and carved-top solid body guitars. It gives players the expressive pitch movement, vintage visual style and smooth response that make Bigsby hardware a classic choice for subtle vibrato effects.

The B3 is commonly used with thin archtops measuring 38.1 mm to 57.2 mm (1-1/2” to 2-1/4”), as well as carved-top solid bodies, including some Gretsch Duo Jet models. Its lack of a tension bar creates a shallower break angle over the bridge, giving the strings a softer feel.

It features a cast aluminium frame, stainless steel handle and USA precision-made low-friction needle bearings to help the string mounting bar return to pitch. Mounting hardware is included, including spring, washer, screws and felt pads. It mounts with four supplied screws near the strap button.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this Bigsby is best for players upgrading a compatible thin archtop or carved-top solid body guitar with gold hardware and smooth vibrato control.
