Anyone that's seen the BIGSBY pedal rod connect/disconnect system, is familiar with how quick and easy it is to install pedals on stage at a gig.
My Emmons, is not that wonderful.........
What about the many other pedal steel guitars? Are there any systems that equal BIGSBY for simple hook-up?
Perhaps some of you photo-guys could show us some pix, beneath the guitar and at the pedals themselves? |

Paul Bisby did a great job on this little detail Ray! I can make these connecters, and I'm sure Todd Clinsmith must have some also.
Bigsby's have several features that make me appreciate this great builders mind, and remember, he had no one to copy! Everyone since has!
I'm so happy about Todd carrying on this great Bisby building tradition.
Your great friend.

I'll get some Bigsby pictures up here. I have one double neck 8 with a crossover system, pedals work both necks, WITH CABLE!!! And works perfect. Pretty good for a 1952 steel guitar HUH?
Ya' gotta' see it!
