Description
Install a genuine Bigsby B5 Original vibrato on your guitar without drilling a single hole. This is Vibramate's short-tail mount — built for guitars with tighter clearance, most notably SG Classic-style models with an oversized pickguard that the standard-length V5 kit would otherwise overlap.
Available in five configurations:
- Polished Aluminum — standard finish, right-handed
- Black — right-handed
- Gold — right-handed
- Left-Handed, Gold — mirrored for left-handed players
- Left-Handed, Polished Aluminum — mirrored for left-handed players
Features
- Fits traditional stop-tailpiece/tune-o-matic guitars (SG, Les Paul, Flying V, Explorer, Firebird, and similar)
- Shorter profile clears larger pickguards where the standard V5 kit would interfere
- Includes 3 felt pads on the underside of the mounting plate to protect your guitar's finish
- Includes both English and Metric threaded mounting hardware, for US or import-model guitars
- Automatically positions the Bigsby in the correct orientation for a clean, finished look
- Installs in minutes with no drilling required

Note: Fit varies by guitar model — Vibramate recommends checking your specific model's mounting dimensions before ordering. The Bigsby B5 itself is not included.
