When it first came in for a Bigsby installation and setup, the vibrato was so shiny that it looked out of place. After talking with the customer about it, we decided to knock back the shine using sandpaper and one easy-to-find household ingredient: distilled white vinegar. In today's video, I'll walk you through my process and show you how to match the hardware of your well-worn guitar should you want to do the same thing. DISCLAIMER: if you do this, your warranty is toast. PS: 'relicking,' just like picnicking, trafficking, panicking (which is my default state at the moment) and politicking so use that knowledge for good only pls. Buying on Reverb?
