When Paul Bigsby decided to make a better Vibrato in 1946, he didn’t know that he was introducing an iconic symbol of cool - he just wanted to fix the problems of vibrato bars that existed at that time.

Since then, Bigsby has been adding it’s unique brand of hipness, vibe, and flat out cool to the World’s Best Guitars.

Isn’t it time to add some “Vibe” to YOURS?
