    Flying V 70s

    Requires modification
    Drilling

    No holes in the top, but expect small screw holes inside the V for the wing bracket, and fit on this Epiphone isn't confirmed. Check before buying.

    Why we say this

    Epiphone list a LockTone stop bar and Tune-O-Matic on this guitar, which is what Vibramate's Flying-V kit is made for. Vibramate say the kit's wing bracket "does require screw mounting inside the guitar edges", so expect a few small, permanent screw holes inside the V. Vibramate don't list this model, so check the fit before ordering. You need a genuine Bigsby B7 as well.

    Flying V 2019

    No holes in the top, but expect small screw holes inside the V for the kit's wing bracket.

    Why we say this

    This guitar has the stop bar and Tune-O-Matic setup (Gibson list an aluminium Nashville Tune-O-Matic) that Vibramate's Flying-V kit is made for. Vibramate say the kit's wing bracket "does require screw mounting inside the guitar edges", so expect a few small screw holes inside the V: out of sight, but permanent. That's far less than mounting a Bigsby straight onto the top. You need a genuine Bigsby B7 as well.
