Independent shopping perspective
Finished in gold, the B500 Licensed Tailpiece is a Bigsby vibrato unit for flat-top solid-body guitars. It is derived from the original B5 design and uses a tension bar to increase the break angle over the bridge. Four screws secure it to the guitar’s top, so the mounting position needs to be part of the job from the outset. Its vibrato action is intended to produce smooth, accurate pitch changes and restrained vibrato effects.
