Designed for use on arch top electric guitars. The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

Will this also need a Vibramate plate to properly install the Bigsby?
Asked by Anonymous on February 8th, 2017.
If you do not want to put holes in your guitar then the Vibramate is necessary. It also makes this mod completely reversible.

Both the Bigsby B3 and the B7 units are commonly used on solid body electrics that have a carved top.
