Bigsby B16 Tailpiece with Bridge and Neck Shim Aluminum

Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The aluminum B16 is a Telecaster-specific Bigsby vibrato assembly with an aluminum floating bridge and neck shim included. It offers a wider pitch range than standard Bigsbys, giving a Telecaster player access to both restrained vibrato and more pronounced pitch movement. Installation instructions are included, and the supplied bridge and shim keep the installation centered on getting the guitar set up and intonated afterward.
