I have a 1974 Guild Starfire 4. It has a nice flamed natural finish. I play surf music, and want to add a Bigsby to my Starfire so I can use it. I have grown so accustomed to playing a guitar with a vibrato that I just don't pick up hard tails anymore. I've sold most guitars in my collection that don't have vibratos for lack of use.
The big question creeps in from the collectors view. Do I do it? Do I alter the stockness of the Starfire by drilling two holes in it's top to install the B7?
From a players perspective, it's a no brainer. I will much more enjoy the guitar with a Bigsby. It's night and day for me from that perspective.....
What do you Guild experts / fans think? Any input would be appreciated!
