I am a Bigsby hata because my old bandmate's Washburn - a lovely guitar in most respects - never returned to tuning after using it. Like, never. Anything requiring the Bigsby had to go last in the set.
Coulda been faulty setup or whatever. And I know some people use them to good effect. But that bad experience put me off Bigsbys.
I had an Epiphone 339 that I liked a lot, but it was not really for me. Sold it to a friend, so I get to see it from time to time.
If I go that direction again, I will likely go fully hollow. Hofner Jazzica, like Paul Carrack uses, is a distant dream

Ah man, what was it? Missed it.
I tried some lower end new gretsches a while back and wasn't thrilled with them.
In seriousness, I tracked down some video demos, and I don't think it's exactly what I would look for soundwise. I wish there was an actual semihollow version of the same thing with higher output pickups.
I do also wonder if the positioning of the tremolo arm vs volume and tone knobs would be annoying, and I read that the pickguard is very fragile. Still though, man.
