Guildsby Info

[GSFV]

Does anyone know if the Guildsby's found on the Newark Street collection guitars are licensed bigsby copies? Or something different? I am looking for replacement parts without having to buy a whole new unit from the guild website (they're out of stock anyway).

I would love to put some Callahan parts on there, but they say that they won't fit anything licensed. I imagine that is because of the difference between metric and imperial parts? Any insight would be appreciated. Also, if there is a thread that covers this please let me know, I'm happy to read through it.

Thanks in advance!

They are licensed.

For the most part, you can buy Bigsby replacement parts from Bigsby. You know there's all kinds of vendors on reverb and on eBay so you unless you need the Guild body of the Bigsby you pretty much can avoid Guild altogether for this.

Cool! Yeah. I am looking for maybe a longer arm, and a replacement pin bar. I didn't want to make a purchase and then find nothing fits correctly. So I appreciate the insight.

Tubesandmore.com has parts, iirc.

Right on! I'll look into that. Thank you!
