BIGSBY Tuning Stabilized B3 installed with TOWNER VIBRATO GUITAR PARTS on a GIBSON ES-335

Bigsby Stabilized Tuning by TOWNER with the TOWNER Down Tension Bar: The TOWNER Down Tension Bar relieves the tension the B5 or B7 puts over the strings stabilizing the tuning of the guitar. The B5 and B7 provide too much downward pressure over the strings and the Down Tension Bar provides just enough pressure to keep the strings in place without interfering with the action of the Bigsby returning the strings tuned setup. BIGSBY B3 installed with TOWNER VIBRATO GUITAR PARTS on a GIBSON ES-335. 01/29/2017 • Later on I learned how to install the BIGSBY B6 vibrato tailpiece by swapping the hinge plate for a B3 / B7 hinge plate. The B6 is preferable to ES / semi-hollow guitar bodies because the B6 is longer than the BIGSBY B3. TOWNER DOWN TENSION BAR & HINGE-PLATE ADAPTOR SYSTEM: • Designed for all symmetrical guitars with a stop tailpiece setup. • Hones in the sweet spot of your break angle between the BIGSBY® tailpiece and manages your sustain. • Raises your strap button or strap lock up button up out of the slot in the BIGSBY® B3 and BIGSBY® B7 hinge-plate for easier access. • Relieve you from having to drill any extra holes in the guitar body when you want a BIGSBY® vibrato tailpiece installed.
