These tremolos have been factory fitted to many manufacturers guitars and can also be retrofitted at a later stage. About Bigsby Paul Adelburt Bigsby was a skilled formeman during the 1940s in a machine shop. He befriended iconic guitarist Merle Travis with a shared love of Western music. When Merle brought his Gibson L-10 to Paul to fix the vibrato Paul saw the units shortcomings and designed a whole new device. Over the next few decades Paul Bigsby began to manufacture his own guitars and pickups but it was his Bigsby tremolo device that left a true lasting legacy. The design was sold to Gibson and later the Gretsch Guitar Company
