    Repair Sample: Bigsby bridge & Seventh String Added

    Repair Sample: Bigsby bridge & Seventh String Added

    Bob Walls brought us his beautiful teardrop and said he wanted a Bigsby
    bridge and a seventh string added.

    After changing the nut to suit the new string configuration, Danny came upon a
    problem. Where to put the tuning peg for the seventh string? And how to arrange
    it on the headstock to fit?

    cimg4514.jpg

    In the spirit of improvisation, he decided to use a banjo key and attach it to the back
    of the head stock, thus keeping all seven keys functional and out of the way. Here's
    how it ended up looking.

    Bob certainly looks pleased.
