well as for the tuninig it stays in tune perfectly. as for the wear of the piezo...well its not a floyd, and the use of a bigsby is moderate.

Thanks

Got the bigsby B7, a month ago. Because this is a Variax modeler Guitar wasn't sure if it wouldnt **** up the guitar . but it came out GREAT!!!

Changed the pickup's. The G&B Pickup's are O.K - the same that they put on the PRS (same factory). But i wanted character. So changed the Neck to a Gibson Burstbucker Pro Neck Humbucker IM59A-NH & in the Bridge a Seymour Duncan custom custom SH 11.(not in Photo,Yet.) & Schaller Locking tuners.
NOW ITS A GREAT GUITAR.

A bit more then drilling. The top of the bigsby has a front screw & it was too thick about 3 m"m. half of it had to fit under the tailpiece. so i used a dremil just the part that go's under but enough space to put the screw in.
Had to drill 2 screw's on the top to hold the bigsby firmly to the surface & 4 screws where the strap holds.

Bigsby B7 weigh's 345 Grams

I installed a Bigsby B7 on the JTV 59 It Fits right to the tyler tailpice with one slight problem the Bigsby on theright side has a front screw and it's to thick so just took of a few milileters with a dremil nice 15 minutes work till it slides under the tailpice. screw the straplock to hold the B7 string it and no problem.
No problems with the Models and great when using as normal electric guitar with shaller locking tuning machine heads
