Fingertip Tip Response
Bigsby Tremolo systems can often feel heavy and stiff to operate.This spring brings a lightness of touch to the arm leverage.
It would be nice if they also made a shorter version.so that you could use it with lighter strings, and still have the arm parallel to the strings.
It is a bit pricey at £12.95, more than twice the usual price for a Bigsby Spring, but it does the job!Read full review

Great Upgrade
The Reverend Bigsby spring is one of the best bang for your buck upgrades you can get. It gives you more control over your shimmers and once the strings settled down they felt softer under my fingers and it made my old SG sound and play great.Read full review

Solved my tuning problems
I tried roller bridges, graphtech saddles, nut sauce, locking tuners, and a string butler, but this is the thing that was able to get my LP to stay in tune...
I never write reviews but this little spring has just solved a very long search.Read full review

There's a night and day difference between a standard Bigsby spring and this one. It takes a bit of getting used to but has made the bigsby much more responsive and expressive. Tuning seems to be a bit more stable aswell.

Reverend Soft Touch Spring For Bigsby Vibratos
Fitted this to my Gretsch 2622T Bigsby. Much better and easier to use than the one supplied which needed far too much down pressure for it to work satisfactory. Although a bit costly for what it is.

Great solution, springs in my existing Bigsbys felt stiff, not much travel in the arm, this is a simple solution and it works great. Seems longer and less tightly coiled which just = smooth and more useable.Read full review

Much improved Bigsby
This spring really does improve the tremolo on my modern Gretsch Electromatic. The rather stiff action of the trem is transformed into a nice smooth feel with the ability to dive it more like a lighter feeling trem say on a Strat. No problem with going back to tune up or down, though in fairness the original spring was fine in that regard - the Bigsby design is pretty good.
My only moan would be the price!Read full review

Quick and easy upgrade
My Epiphone ES295 had a spring in that was like pumping iron to use and gave off nasty clunks every so often. This spring seems expensive but it really transforms your playing experience and provides super smooth vibrato.Read full review

Reverend Spring
Smooth. Made a stiff feeling B7 feel like an old Gretsch B6.
The store were great with communication.

What a difference!
Very eay action, which is far better than the originaal very powerfull spring, with which I had problems when restringing, as the action was far too high.
