Bigsby 1949 Standard Inspired Tele Roasted Maple Strat Neck Replica Firebird 2025 - Nitro Cellulose Lacquer

Tribute and Inspired by Bigsby standard model from 1949 with Telecaster features, roasted figured maple Stratocaster neck with 22 Stainless Steel medium frets, modern C shaped!

The heavily chambered Body core of this Guitar is made out of Swamp Ash with Spanish Cedar wings.

It is topped with a wildly figured western Flamed Maple Top.

The Pickups, Seymour Duncan Hot Chicken Noiseless stack in the Bridge position, and a Firebird Hot Neck Mini Humbucker Pickup in a custom made mounting plate. This means the guitar is quiet without single coil hum in any position! Ultra Twang in the Bridge, sparkles Tele in the Middle and nice round Neck Firebird pickup sounds are very inspiring and give best of 3 worlds!

Tune-O-Matic Nashville bridge with Titanium Saddle, paired with a recessed mounted Goldo/Duesenberg Les Trem Flat Arm vibrato Tailpiece with perfect string angle! Works smoother than a Bigsby and stays in TUNE with the Vintage Kluson style LOCKING tuners! All Hardware is Chrome plated.

3 way Toggle switch, master Volume in cutaway, master Tone, CTS solid shaft Pots, electrosocket Tele cup Jack with switchcraft jack.

The Neck has ABALONE face Dot inlays and the Body is bound with a Abalone imitation Celluloid binding.

The roasted Maple neck is finished in a ultra thin urethan finish (for durability) vs the Body is finished and relicted in a Nitro-Cellulose Lacquer without plasticides additives in the lacquer, so it will crackle and appear vintage (it already has) over time. It is Tobacco-burst on the sides and the top and back with a super thin layer of clear lacquer over it!

I should probably mention that this guitar will fit in a Jazzmaster/Jaguar type Case! It is 14.5" wide at the lower bout and has standard Jazzmaster length.

Needless to mention this guitar is unique and handmade with top quality components and craftsman-ship exceeding the asking price by a multiple factor! Please feel free to ask any questions prior to purchasing, I take the right to end the listing anytime, since it is locally advertised for sale as well, thanks

Update: 5/22 I just loaded better pictures for you, same guitar!
