Started with MIJ Fernandez FGZ model color mint green. . .

to this

Replaced stock trem with Ibanez Lo Pro
re-painted to Flat Black
replaced tuner with black one
then tried my patience in replacing/installing MOP(Abalone) Punisher fretmarker inlays

Question lang mga kapatid.. How and where can I buy a bigsby modification for a les paul copy guitar? Is this DIY or dalhin ko nlang ba sa luthier?

Salamat sa tulong mga tol! Peace!

Hi, dont know if you found your answer, pero you should check out Vibramate:

V7-LP mounting kit for Bigsby B7 Models
http://www.vibramate.com/vibramate-v7-lp-install.php

V5 mounting kit for Bigsby B5 models
http://www.vibramate.com/vibramate-v5-install.php

may makikita ka LPs installed w/ a B5 tho I wouldn't recommend, might put too much stress on the stop tail screw holes, yung pang-B7 na lang.

Cool thing with the Vibramate its easy to install tapos wala pang permanent modification sa guitar (screw holes)..

yun lang, mejo may kamahalan yung Vibramate + Bigsby mods, pero if this is not an issue with you, suggest you try it out.

Good luck and hope this helps

That honestly looks like some weird yet really cool pickup combination with the Lace neck and P-Rails bridge!

What's the middle pickup?

gradual nothing · « **Reply #315 on:** October 18, 2012, 08:39:45 PM »

@r_chino18 it's still a lace sensor pickup, forgot the exact name but there is a futuristic word in it, that silver thingy that surrounds that middle pickup is just a pickguard, you can remove it if you want.. cool ang combination na toh, malamig yung tunog ng mid yung neck medyo hawig sa sh-2n ang tunog na kinda chunky

I never thought those numbers on knobs have any use at all until I saw those pointers. hahaha pwede pala no?

kasi I just adjust volume based on what I hear, if it's too much distortion, too much volume, or tone. tweak without looking hehehe. Pero I guess those pointers can ba big help rin.

Old Gibsons had them knob pointers.

oo bro, ganun din ako, i adjust the knobs based on what i hear also, pero ngayon kasi naka treble bleed na ko, i think mas OK kung alam ko kung ano na ung amount ng volume and tone ko.
