Bigsby B5 Vibrato Tailpiece String-Through Polished Aluminium

Polished String-Through Bigsby B5 for Easier Restringing

The Bigsby B5 Vibrato Tailpiece String-Through in Polished Aluminium is a genuine Bigsby vibrato made for flat-top solid body guitars. Sometimes known as the Bigsby horseshoe, the B5 is a versatile option for players adding classic vibrato movement and vintage hardware style to a compatible guitar.

The B5 uses a tension bar to increase the break angle over the bridge, helping suit flat-top solid body designs. This string-through version has a pinless design, making string changes easier by removing the need to hook the ball end of each string onto a post on the string bar.

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 that attach to the guitar top.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this Bigsby is best for players upgrading a compatible flat-top solid body guitar with polished hardware, easier restringing and expressive vibrato control.
