Easy Solid mount
I've got a vintage 1997 Epiphone Les Paul with Epiphone branded B5 factory installed - sparkle red finish. I was not willing to sell that guitar unill..... A year ago I acquired 1998 a cherry burst Korean Les Paul, that needed some TLC. I took a leap recently, and bought the B5 trem with Vibramate mount, even taking customs duty costs into consideration if it didn't work out I could be confidently have made my money back in the UK. Nothing ventured nothing gained as they say. You can always go back - no damage. The fitting of the Vibramate was very easy. Simply destring, select the correct sized screws for ther Vibramaste, (both imperial and metric included), then four small screws to mount the B5 on the bracket. What surprised me the most is that when installed, the bracket is very stable, I had anticipated it rocking with the vibrato action. But no safe as houses. All |I can say is that after doing some fret work, and sorting out the electrics on my cherry burst Epi, I can now let go of the vintage limited edition. The cherry burst is a beast! The extra string length makes bends smoother, the tone rocks. I would recommend the youtube channel 'DylanTalksTone', for general info on Bigsby B5 setup. There's stuff on there that is beyond what common sense will tell you unaided. One note- the Vibramate has fixed spacing to replace your tail-piece - check the centre spacing on your guitar if you happen to have a non brand guitar then check against Bigsby specs online.. Otherwise you should be OK. This measurement is really the only variable in the equation.
