There's some feedback regarding Bigsby pedals in the Buy & Sell section. Anybody have more information on the current state of the Bigsby company? Are they making any pedals like the volume/tone pedal, or are they just making the Vibrola units which seem to still be available as an on some Gibson, Gretsch and other make spanish guitars? I just surfed back and typed in the key word Bigsby and checked out ther site. It only showed Vibrato units and an addres in Savanah GA. Isn't that where Gtretsch is located?
Haere mai,

Gretsch bought them out, when was it..around 1999?
So it's still Bigsby, but part of Gretsch, an inhouse operation you might say.
