    Drilling

    Even though this is a genuine Bigsby-to-Bigsby swap, owners consistently report the mounting holes do not line up. Budget for filling the old holes and drilling new ones.

    Why we say this

    Multiple Gretsch owner reports describe swapping between Bigsby models on this bridge and body style as consistently needing new mounting holes. The center screw sometimes lines up, but the outer mounting holes almost never do, and the old holes stay visible under the new plate unless filled first.
