BigsbyB12 Tailpiece with Tension Bar Gold
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The gold B12 is a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece for archtop solid-body and semi-hollow-body guitars, including Les Paul Standard, Les Paul Custom, and Gibson 335 models. It is slightly shorter than a B7 and uses a tension bar to increase the string break angle over the bridge. The B12 is built around smooth, accurate pitch changes, making it a practical route to subtle vibrato effects with a classic Bigsby look.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Adding subtle vibrato to a Les Paul Standard, Les Paul Custom, or Gibson 335.
