Looks pretty nice. Always fancied those Daisy Rock doublecuts.

Yeah, problem is, though, I don't like it that much. It plays nothing like my Retro-H Deluxe, which is the reason why I took a chance on it. It's almost 8 pounds (a full pound heavier than the Bigsby-equipped Retro-H), has a wider neck, overall, it's just not what I wanted, and it still has a bit of neck dive.

I think I'm just gonna buy that Jaguar HH Special like I've always wanted.

Meanwhile, here are some pictures of my fully modded Aerodyne:

Just took a group shot of my electrics.

^ Pure class.

Your hagstrom sold on eBay I saw?

Thanks,

And yes, the Hagstrom did sell-considering the neck imperfection and the repair done to it, I think I did alright. I'm definitely going to miss that one, but I'm quite happy with what I have now so hopefully I won't want for a while.

My humble collection:

That's about my ideal guitar collection, they look lovely.

4 very sweet guitar MM, like Benecol said I would be proud to have all 4

I got bored whilst I was practicing, so indulgent shot of acoustic:

i'll leave these here.. (excuse the crappy cell phone pics)
My classic vibe esquire/telecaster. did an modd My brother's epiphone les paul special with what i think are p90s. My old squier affinity stratocaster (made a thread, but i'll include it here too)

Love the O's!

Right just got my Tele back from my mate who kindly agreed to wire up my new pickups (Kent Armstrong vintage 12’s) and a push /pull coil split:





Ps: I’ve posted this elsewhere cause I’m well chuffed with it...

Here's some of my toys:

G&L Tribute S-500






Peavey T-15






Squier Master Series M-80 (thanks ends!)

Haven't posted in here for ages so here's a couple of recent shots.

The 335


The MIM Tele, although I think the body is probably the only thing that's original now.


Together - bit sunny up here today so forgive the poor photography skillz.

When you install a Bigsby can you still leave the original bridge on? I have seen some do this & wondered if it is to help with tension. I know you can buy a bar that replaces the original bridge to put tension on the strings & supposedly means you don't have to drill the top of the body.

I'm not sure to be honest. I know you can get different versions of them where you don't have to drill holes. Unless you buy a B5 then you're going to need to drill regardless as you need to drill a couple of holes next to the strap button.

I bought the guitar with the Bigsby already fitted so I can't really offer much help. There's loads of info on different models on their site though as well as various forums etc.
