I bought one yesterday .Buit it had a single cutaway

Nice to see Jim on again, he really knows his stuff! Cheers Ben

My main amp is the RIVERA Stage IV. Which includes all of Paul Rivera's Mod's. Love it. Keep it simple - guitar > turbo tuner > overdrive > amp.

I dig it.

It’s delicious!! I still can’t figure out flavor

If Gibson had stainless frets options i would be all over it..

Can you not get a guitarist to play and you just do the voice over. Thank you 🙏

sweet guitar 👍 thanks Ben ✌️

Rock n Roll Machine in Green the fastest thing ya ever seen.👍

I lived in Belleville, Ontario in the late '60s. Cool place.

I own one but unplugged the reverb wires because it had. A hum thought that was the problem not but i don't want to hurt the head hooking up the wires

Do you know how to hook up the reverb wires inside the chassis

Cheers

Inverness Green? Looks more like Pelham blue on my monitor! The exchange rate makes it about $1500 US. Did they give an actual weight for this? Thanks for the demo Ben! Cheers!

Get it! Get it! Get it!

Nice!!!

I do love that finish, though it does strike me that this is a little excessively priced for not having a hardshell included, but I good looking instrument that seems to be pretty well executed overall

I think it's a real shame that guitars are so expensive in Canada 🤷‍♂️

A simple basic Guitar by Gibson I like that. Reminds me of the used Melody Maker I was gifted by my parents early 70s.

🤟😁👍Sweet. But 2k and just a gigbag? 🤔

Beautiful colour.

Lite , what is Inverness green ? But I like it. Where is it made ? ✌️

Ohh a thin mints LP 😂😂😂😂😂

People watching can be entertaining. Like Elvis at the food basics, could he be our Canuck version of QFJ at the Kroger😁. Your right about every town has the old dude with the old bicycle, usually with a plastic milk carton bungied to a bike rack and half full of empty beer bottles trying to make a buck. Anyway I look forward to the next out and about. I can only catch the replays as I'm always, you know where on the weekdays. 👍

Ben Ben Ben I just sharpened an old ladies electric mower blade for free she insisted I take 10$ so I did

You keep posting vids , i will keep watching!!! Thanks!

What are we drinking today Ben? Cheers!🍻

Two stores-half hour. Sorry I missed. Mowing at her Dad's farm. Can't hear the notification over the diesel noise. Lol

A man will always have to wait on a woman.

Shoulda got the gator blades I swear you could mow a rainforest with those

That's not the Joni Mitchell lyric I remember, lol. Cheers Ben, enjoy the rays!

The maple top is all balck, how do you know it is triple A or zero A?

That's really surprising. Bigsby is owned by Fender, that's why you haven't seen it much on anything else but Gretsches. (stock) Especially not Gibson owned brands. Btw. one thing that might also be interesting on these videos is, if they have modern or 50s wiring. You can easily test this with reducing the volume of one PU to 0 in the middle position and it should mute the guitar even if the other volume is up. In the modern wiring style, this won't happen. This is interesting information for those of us that fiddle with the volume controls a lot to dial in the tone. :) Cheers, Martin

Cortez the killer, great tune!

thanks for reminding me why I am not a Bigsby fan. other wise not a bad looking guitar

Bigsby's look really cool, if I had one I probably would never use it. I prefer solid, a "less is better" config. Two posts and a reach around bridge straight to the nut 😉, just say'in. Nice guitar though. Thanks Ben. 👍

Nice! Maple/mahogany? Feel? For 4 hours? Thanks Ben!! --gary

🤘🏽🤘🏽 ... ✌🏽

Thanks!!

I have an Epi Les Paul with a factory Bigsby. Just a cautionary note for those considering this guitar configuration. The Les Paul is a relatively short body and when strung as intended the Bigsby causes the break angle of the strings to the bridge to be very steep. This may (likely will) cause the strings (especially the high E) to contact the sharp edge of the bridge block before it gets to the saddle. This is a problem! There are several possible options to solve this ... mill a 45° chamfer on the back edge of the bridge block, shim the Bigsby up higher, install a BricksBiggsFix tuning stabilizer, install a roller bridge. I chose to go with a roller bridge but there are questions regarding impact on tone doing this.

Love that axe 🎸 🎸🤘

Might be the Les Paul I finially bond with. Hmmmmmmmm.

Wow a high gloss pipiphone 😄

Classic!! Black with a Bigsby!!

Pretty sweet LP Ben! Are the pickups Alnico Classics? Sounds like it. Thanks for the demo!

Nice guitar !.. My fav gtr w/ a Bixby is the SG . Keep on Rockin 👍
