Bigsby begone!

PieterS 03.09.2013

I wanted to add a vibrato to my DBZ Imperial. For those of you who don't know this guitar; it is a really light and super thin guitar. I had toyed with the idea of adding a trem to the guitar, but most trems require some routing, and taking even more wood out of this guitar would really be impossible. A Bigsby on another guitar got my attention, until I figured that type of bridge might throw my DBZ off balance. I came upon this trem, and I couldn't be happier. Nice action (more or less half a step up and half a step down) and you can use it for subtle movements or less subtle dives and pull ups. Obviously, it's not a Floyd either, but that wasn't what I was after. I should mention that I paired this up with a roller bridge(ABM), since I thought the stock saddles would tear my strings to shreds if I used the trem too much. That might have been a bit overreacted, the break angle of the strings leaving the trem is quite shallow, but nevertheless it makes a nice pair. Installing was really easy. The posts included with the Les Trem were a direct fit to the stock bridge bushings. All in all a great trem for a reasonable price!

Good but not without flaws...

Anonymous 29.11.2014

Overall a good product. Has a nice, smooth feel, similar to a Bigsby but much simpler and more discreet and stays in tune well. Fitting is simple and doesn't require any alteration to the guitar.

There are one or two design problems though. Firstly the nut that adjusts the tension of the arm, so that it either swings away when you let go of it or stays where it is, is very hard to access without taking off the guitar strings and dismantling the entire unit. Also, because of the nature of the spring position, the tension of the arm is not consistent throughout its movement and its hard to get it exactly how I want it.

Secondly, the arm is held at the correct angle by a small grub screw which needs to be tightened almost to breaking point to stop the arm twisting in its socket under use.

Thirdly, with the arm attached my Les Paul no longer fits in its case and there is no simple way to make it fit without completely dismantling the unit unlike a Floyd Rose etc. where all you have to do is unscrew the arm.

If the manufacturer could address at least the first two of these problems (which shouldn't be too difficult) this would be a five star product.

Overall, this sounds negative but once you get it setup properly it works well and I'd still take it over a Bigsby.

Best TOM vibrato system I've tried

ABH 05.01.2021

The tension of the arm is perfectly loose yet stable. You can adjust the angle of the arm very specifically and it stays in place unless you really beat it up. Great performance, adjustability and looks for half the price of a Bigsby.

WOW!

I've got a guitar with nearly every tremolo in the rainbow, but I tried a chrome one and fell in love, so I got a gold one for another guitar. Anytime I want, I can switch it to a different stop tailpiece guitar, without invasive modifications. That's enough for the price, but along with the engineering, you also get the most meticulous and beautiful work with metals on Earth. It is beautiful and combined with it's flawless real purpose, I'm impressed and extremely happy to have discovered them. They are rare as hens teeth here in the states, so I was thrilled to be able to purchase and receive one in such amazing speed. Four days and I was playing guitar with a gold one. Thanks to Thomann from Rolla, MO USA!
