If anyone has any ideas id loe to here them. ..hmm i reaslly thought i had put a link to the site here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opranks612 Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 What kind of guitar is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbkim Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 What kind of guitar is it? An Agile V? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbkim Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 What do you want to do with the trem? You know the Bigsby will only +/- about half a step? Plus, you'd probably have to add an "extension" in the V crotch to accomodate a Bigsby. Floyds, etc. will involve routing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapbarstrat Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 never saw what an Agile V looks like, but Lonnie Mack's real '58 V looks cool with a bigsby http://www.flying-v.ch/f_5859/l_mv.gif Some Swedish guitarist put a fender trem on a V ( I think you can see the holes for the original tailpiece. http://www.flying-v.ch/pics/fs80ym.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbkim Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 That's the exact V-crotch extension I was thinking of! Hmm... it's probably be more properly called a cross-member (I think.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you telling me have not heard of the great Yngwie?? And a agile V look like a jackson King V. You could always fill in the string thru holes, and put a kahler one their. But that would require some routing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
