Bit the bullet and bought a Bigsby B6C for $120.00 + 17.00 postage to Australia. I thought that was a fair price, and I'll never get it even close to that price here in Perth.

So when I get my headstock decal from Mr. Setzer, I can get my standby switch, Tremelo, and decal done at the same time. Then I'll be all done.

Sounds like a plan.

Seems like a good deal on the Bigsby. I bought a gold B6 from the US for $141 last year - not a hope of getting a price like that in Oz.

Yeah that's what made me finally pop for it. The price.

Hi Opart, that is a great deal on the B6C. Please post pics when it all comes together.

Yeah, I just checked the Angela site and they cost more this month, than when I was hipped to them being 117.00 a few months back by a member on this board. I'm real happy with shipping cost too. When I get to having it all together soon, I think I'll probably be able to decide whether a custom pick guard is really necessary. I've had a fare bit of fun doing this stuff and will be sorely missing not having much to left to do with, but play .
