Bigsby

[DOOM]

Does anybody know what size Bigsby would fit an Epiphone Dot? Looking at using one as a partscaster base

Depends upon the bridge used and original tailpiece it was designed for.
I have 3 Bigsby guitars.  If you offer more info/details I can help

It's the current Dot Deluxe with a Locktone Tuneomatic and stopbar tailpiece.

OK.  That bit about a partscaster base had me really questioning your starting point.

You will want a Bigsby with the tension roller. Spend the extra cash and get the non import one.  So look to a B-7 or a B-12.

Next realize either will require holes drilled to mount.  A Vibramate could alleviate that.

Also consider the Vibramate Spoiler
or the replacement Callaham roller to make stringing easier.

TBurst has the right idea on the Callaham main string shaft. You'll never regret that.
