PA Reissue BIGSBY T8, no pedals, $4300 obo

Post by Jeremy Wakefield »

Beautiful early-2000's Bigsby copy, built by Paul Warnik and Dave Peterson. I've owned it for about a year but need to let it go. Excellent workmanship and condition, and the pickups are outstanding. Gorgeous birdseye maple, some original Bigsby parts, converted to pedal-free by Bigsby torch-bearer Todd Clinesmith. Has a few very minor dings and scratches, otherwise very clean.
Please see photos and message me for info or more detailed pics. $4,300 plus shipping.

Too kind, Mr. Alderink, too kind! Though I do think this is one of today’s finest guitars! I appreciate the kind words, thank you.
I’ve had a few questions about the guitar’s specs; scale is 24.5”, string spacing is about 3/8” at the bridge and 1/4” at the nut.

Correction, 11/32” at the bridge. Weighs about 56 lbs. in the case.

Price drop on this PA Reissue. $4300 obo.
Thank you James; I believe the string spacing is consistent with most Bigsby steels..

Bump for a great guy and a great guitar. I can tell you first hand it plays and sounds GREAT, just like you'd expect it to sound.
