Here’s something different! I installed a Stetsbar tremolo bridge onto this Gibson SG. I set this SG up a few months ago for a valued customer so it was nice to see it back on the bench. Similar to a Floyd Rose, these bridges tremolo flat and sharp and can be half locked off to resemble more of a traditional bigsby style bridge. 🎸Fully cleaned 🎸Neck cleaned and treated 🎸New Stestbar bridge installed 🎸Action set 🎸Fully intonated 🎸Nut lubed All for £35! *not including parts Thanks to my friends at MorMusic York for supplying the Stetsbar bridge. #manchesterguitartech #manchesterguitarist #manchesterbassist #manchester #northerquarter #northerquartermcr #nq #manchestermusic #manchestermusicscene #redcity #redcityrecordings #manchestermetal #bimmmanchester #rncmusic #lespaul #stetsbar #gibson #gibsonsg
