Anyway, I put my version of Paul Bigsby's face on the peghead. I'm a good example of why some tattoo artists refuse to do portraits!.

I finally finished up a guitar with a pair of Shane's Bigsby repro pickups. They're really nice. The guitar is chambered sapele with a padauk top. That's what I had in the shop...

Are you willing to share the first, second, or third generation information that you refer to? If that is already shared, then my apologies!Chris Lucker wrote:I have to ask here.
Is this little circle joke because the pickups “appear correct”? Sorry, not worth the time following this to get the quote exact.
Why not just reproduce all the details of a First generation, second generation, or third generation Bigsby pickup already available. Except by the schmucks who bury the truth with their guesses.
