I was thinking about this and trying to remember.
He told me this steel was homemade, but I can't remember if he made it or someone else?
I've seen photos of him with one of these Rickenbacker D-8 steels, so maybe that was in between the homemade and the Bigsby.
Wish my memory was better!
FYI: Speedy West's Bigsby now owned by Deke Dickerson
