Where can a guy find a trem arm bracket for a bigsby like Chet used with the fixed position in gold. I have the round tremelo bar's but they have the swivel instead of the fixed bracket.thanks.

You might also see if anyone here wants to sell theirs. They came with the 59 Nashville Classic/Country Gentleman. Many guys use the swivel bracket. So they have the stationary bracket unused in their case pocket. You might ask around here and see if anyone wants to give you a good deal on their unused bracket. :D
Thanks,

If you have a NEW Gretsch CG, they might supply you with one for FREE if you have a recent proof of purchase.
