    I love this vibrato bar. I'm building a left hamded telecaster. Being left handed, it can be difficult to find the type of guitar I like. I decided to build my own telecaster and it's coming out awesome. I'm doing a silverburst color with some tex mex pickups. Locking tuners and the Bigsby B5 vibrato bar. I also have a custom pickguard with some cool old sci fi movie posters printed on it. My build is coming out really well. Im still working on my paint job. I've done plenty of soldering for replacing pickups, pots, jacks, etc... but ive never built a guitar from scratch. I wanted a really cool looking telecaster and when im done this will be awesome. I love the look of this vibrato bar. It's going to be so cool. Im going to bolt it right on. I know ow there an option to buy a piece that will allow you to attach this without drilling but this guitar will be one with the Bigsby. Im not concerned about ever removing it. There plenty of videos on how to I stall one of these. Its not rocket science. As long g as you're comfortable working with tools you should be fine. If not just have a professional install it. Either way this just adds a really cool look to the guitar and I like vibrato bars. I've used one on a different guitar and its something that I like. To each their own. If you are going to buy a vibrato bar then Bigsby is a safe choice. Tried and true.
