It was great cos you can fit into the holes without fucking the top up. It has the crazy 'random' feel of a bigsby- great for Neil Young type vibrato, but you won't bomb it much. Good if, like me, your finger vibe sucks.
They're about £160 though

Seriously. I think they'd look good on right guitar, though I've no Idea what that might be...
The only downside I could see was that it was a bit heavier, but nowt drastic or noticeable when you are playing.
As for whether you should wait and get the real thing, I guess it depends on the guitar. A real one would have trebled the guitar value on my Epi, so it didn't seem worth it. On others I've gone for a proper one, but not really sure it makes any great difference, tbh
thinks I will take a punt on the bigsby copy . Only a Chinese epi dot in cherry but plays and sounds the bomb!
Not quite got the funds but have a bday coming up.so will update when I get it...... And love your offsets you do,shame your not nearer Leeds ,as I am gonna build a Telemaster (well wudtone a body and get my tech to assemble it).
All the best
cheers Mark.

The GFS trem can only cost about £85 with import duty and VAT so must be worth a go.
