![]() ![]() I want to "clarify" a comment I posted re my "long lost Bigsby Guitar" I had asked Jon Light to help me add a page to his (It;s Bigsby Time" Jon was kind enough to send me all the info on how to apply my message to the nice photo he made up for me,,,,this guitar appears with ray Montee' beautiful 4 neck Bigsby. Ray is very high on Jon and his willingness to help guys like me to do what is necessary to "paste copy" etc ,,,,this is all GREEK to me,,,,somehow my comment made it sound as though " Jon" never got back to me to help me Jon please if you see this accept my apology so the whole world can see,,, DVA has told me you are a "cool" dude and more than willing to help illiterates like me,,,,I know you are one hell of a guy, so please accept my sincere apology. I am still trying to figure oout how to do the post,,,but I think my strings are beginning to unravel ,,,help me re-wind them so I can get back in tune,,,,,my sincere apologies to you,,,Ray Montee was right,,,,, you are a GREAT GUY Jody |

![]() ![]() This thread is killin me ..LOL !!! I too, have owned a few Bigsbys in my time.....the sound of course is unsurpassed ... ! Interesting comment made by Buddy Emmons when I gave him a solid state Standel Custom 15 for his birthday last year....& I quote....."There it is....!!! thats the sound !!..dont touch anything..!!" me :" ROFL !!!" I might add, he was playing a push/pull thru it.I believe his LeGrande was still with the Everly's gear....Buddy called me several days later & remarked how much the sound reminded him of his Bigsby thru a Standel......('course we all know "E" could get tone out of a coffee table....).That Bigsby sound is so much the guitar...but also some of the amp.I have played a Bigsby T-8 I owned thru a Nashville 400. Fine amp..but not 4 the Bigsby..imho.... If you ever have the opprotunity to play thru a Standel with just about anything..I think it will surprise you. May ruin you for life if you happen to have a Bigsby handy at the time.LOL ! Great thread Guys !!...its Sat. mornin here in Tennessee.....Think I'll call up Eddie Stubbs @ WSM & request "Slowly" and "More and More"...... Eddie would get a big kick outta this thread ...!!!!
