    Rain was referring to the  big chunk of metal.
     
    What is the advantage of a Bigsby+B Bender?

    Looks nice.
     
    Didn't some guitars have the B string bender attached to the body strap button?

    That's awesome right there! You can get your Rockabilly on with some pedal steel licks. Schweet.

    Yup, I was referring to the combination of Bigsby and B-Bender. I've always been a sucker for B-Bender, though I never owned a guitar equipped with one.
     
    It has to be because of Jimmy Page, and I actually mimic it quite a bit w/ just my fingers.
     
    I've never been big into tremolo but recently developed a thing for Bigsby. Seeing the two combined is quite awesome.
     
    As for the actual guitar in the pic, I have no idea what it is - it's from an eBay add for the Bigsby-B-Bender.
